Hi Rick.  I have been running with a pair of V-Series for the last 90
days without problems both under SCO Xenix and now under Interactive 
Unix System V.   With both operating systems, I locked the port at 9600
baud (the V-Series didn't like 19.2kbaud) and used only one gettydef
entry for 9600 baud - and let the modem handle the downshifting to the
carrier baud rate.   Throughput on V.42 connections averages around
930 cps, and MNP connections at 2400 baud average 265 cps.
