- I am using a SupraFAX 28.8K modem on my A-2000HDP (7.16mhz), and have been
- able to process using 38400 selection on JR-Comm with adequate results.
- The BBS I have been calling most frequently ALWAYS shows at least 120%
- download time compared to actual time. Alas, I have been unable to connect
- reliably with the 57.6K setting. Maybe I need an accelerator? ;^)
