Question: does KS 1.3 have any problems on PAL machines to do exactly the
baud rate that has been set ?

After some testing, I seem to have the following effects:

- when using 38400 Bd between my 1.3 1000 and 2.0 3000, I have absolutely
  no problems when sending and receiving data on either side

- using my HST Modem hooked to my 1000, I can not use 38400 due to errors
  in transmission (V42bis/MNP protected data transmission, so there
  shouldn't be any errors)

So: is there a percentage by which the baud rate (when opening the port)
has to be corrected in order to get the right rate ?
