First. I don't see any reasons, why you should to use the 38400 bps
speed, because it is so few situations, where it is useful.

JR-Comm is truely lazy, and hard load to the Amiga. It have problems
with 38400.

Only terminal software that I have seen working 100% OK with 38400
is Azcomm V2.XX. There is support for 38400 bps. But this terminal
is only met for transfering files with ZMODEM. There ain't working
VT100 or ANSI-emulation. I use this, if I have to transfer files
higher speed that 19200 or I have to do something else during the
file transfering. It's a very 'light' SW.
