This can happen if the files are small, because of buffering in the
Telebits. Be sure to make the comparison with larger files, say 200k.

Also the rate could be different if the modems didn't get primed the same
way on each test call, i.e., activation of the modem's internal G protocol.

Or, the rates would be different if the hardware/software flow control
was messed up on one end. But you would see that when running uucico in
the debug mode.

All that aside, my 3B2 w/ Telebit transmits about 200cps slower than it
receives.
