- Actually, 28.8 requires at least 3200 baud and 33.6 requires 3429 baud.
-
- 28.0 at 3200 baud is running 9 bits per baud.
-
- 33.6 at 3479 baud is running >9 bits per baud. While it is not
- uncommon to be able to have the bandwidth in the USA to get 3479 baud,
- having the SNR to run >9 bits per baud is and thus, 31200 (9
- bits/baud), is reasonably common.
