- I need an answer to something that has been puzzling me for a few weeks
- now. When downloading via Zmodem with JR-Comm 1.02a on a 2400 baud
- modem, I can boost my characters per second from 234 up to 278 by
- switching to PAL mode! At first, I thought it might just be an error in
- a video based timer, but I actually sat down with a stopwatch and timed a
- download, once in NTSC and once in PAL. PAL was faster!!
-
- My configuration is as follows: A500 with WB 1.3, 4.5 megs of RAM, Fatter
- Agnus, Cardinal 2400EX modem. Now, nothing there seems to be an obvious
- connection.
