I have WBs here running off a Specialix SI. I've used the atdialer stuff
with no problem, but now I'm using Taylor uucp. I started out with the &F3
HDB setting and made a few changes. Here's my stored profile:

  at&v
  WorldBlazer - SA - Version LA5.00W- Active Configuration
   B1  E1  L1  M1  Q2  T   V1  X12  Y0
  &C1 &D3 &G0 &J0 &L0 &Q0 &R3 &S1 &T4 &X0
  S000:1   S001=0   S002=43  S003=13  S004=10  S005=8   S006=2   S007:60
  S008=2   S009=6   S010=14  S011=70  S012=50  S018=0   S025=5   S026=1
  S038=0   S041:1   S045=0   S046=0   S047=4   S048=0   S050=0   S051:6
  S056=17  S057=19  S058:2   S059:15  S060=0   S061:0   S062=15  S063=0
  S064=0   S068=255 S069=0   S090=0   S092=0   S093=8   S094=1   S100=0
  S104=0   S105=1   S111:30  S112=1   S151=4   S155=0   S180=2   S181=1
  S183=25  S190=1   S191:6   S253=10  S254=255 S255=255
  OK

My ports are locked at 38400. When I dial out to Compuserve or another Unix
(using XC), I change nothing. For assorted uucp connections, these are my
choices in the Taylor configuration 'port' and 'dial' files:

  # This is port
  
  port wbpep
  type modem
  device /dev/ttyA08
  speed 38400
  dialer PEP
  
  port wbpepu
  type modem
  device /dev/ttyA08
  speed 38400
  dialer PEPU
  
  port wbpepuc
  type modem
  device /dev/ttyA08
  speed 38400
  dialer PEPUC
  
  port wb32bis
  type modem
  device /dev/ttyA08
  speed 38400
  dialer V32bis
  
  port wb32
  type modem
  device /dev/ttyA08
  speed 38400
  dialer V32
  
  etc.



  # This is dial
  
  dialer V32bis

I've not tried that speed yet. As it is, most of the heavy traffic here is
news which is already compressed. Other WB's average about 1960 cps in
transferring such files with my site.
