183.0. "C-Kermit at 1200/75???" by OCKER::JSBAKER () Fri Nov 21 1986 01:48

    Hi folks,
    	I just tried using C-Kermit from FISH disk 26 with a 1200/75
    modem and could not set speed for 1200/75, only 1200/1200.
    Is there any way to get the split speed out of this program, short
    of hacking the code? Is setting split baud rates possible(easy)
    in Lattice V3.03?
    
    Any help would be appreciated,
    John Baker
    
    P.S Does Dave Wecker's VT100 support split speeds?

183.1serial driver defeciency?NOVA::RAVANFri Nov 21 1986 12:375
    Somebody with the ROM Kernel Manuals beside them correct me if
    I'm wrong, but if I remember correctly the serial driver itself
    does not support split speeds.

183.2Why Split?AUTHOR::MACDONALDCUP/MLFri Nov 21 1986 14:051
    Why do you need to use split speeds?

    The driver in the amiga does not do split speeds.  I second the
    question in .2

183.4No!! Really!! 1200/75SNO78C::METRO_OAMon Dec 01 1986 11:3317
    Hi from DownUnder.
    
    re. .0:
    I agree - no, 1200/75 modems didn't go out with the ark! There are
    Bulletin Boards here including the public system called Viatel
    (=British Telecom's PRESTEL) that use them. 
    
    I have a 1200/75 modem here at home and can go out tomorrow and
    buy commercial software capable of operating at the split speed.
    
    300 baud (my only other option from home) is REALLY BORING!!!
    
    OK, so the serial driver doesn't support split speeds...is there
    any other way of achieving it?
    
    regards, Rob
