How does one get faster TB PEP throughput speeds on overseas calls?  I
am trying to send email to a freind in India.  Although we are both
using TB+'s, we can hardly get any data down the channel. Note:

	received data 2539 bytes 10 secs
	received data 64 bytes 9 secs
	sent data 4667 bytes 2 secs
	sent data 73728 bytes 165 secs
	received data 368 bytes 3 secs
	received data 61 bytes 3 secs
	received data 3243 bytes 9 secs
	received data 62 bytes 3 secs

I suspect the problem may be delay times.

Are there any "hidden" registers in the tb+ that will allow me to get
a bit better throughput?  I have heard that trailblazers unwrap the
uucp packet, transmit it in tb-speak and then re-wrap the uucp packet
at the other end.  Perhaps there is a way to increase the packet size
the the tb's send to each other?

Note: my x-fer speeds for local calls routinely get 14.4 kbs.

What sort of x-fer rates are other folks seeing for overseas calls?
