My PC+ *max* length settable from the menu is 94!!! I have to hexedit
the file PCPLUS.PRM to get it to 255. I can edit a two-byte value (1024
= 0400h), but PC+ only looks at the low byte (apparently) when actually
negotiating the link.

C-Kermit seems limited to 286 bytes at my u. site! Does anyone know
about such strangeness?
Now my efficiency is up to 71% which is close to the theoretical ratio of
14400/19200 = 75%.

It *sure*does*!!! Sent me in the right direction. Thanks, Tom and all.
