  I have a question for the peanut gallery. I know that PEP uses a number
of different frequencies for DAMQAM, achieving an average throughput of
10,000 to 18,000 bps in one direction, with a smaller opposite channel
in the opposite direction (I think it was about 30bps?)
  Now, this is great raw throughput. But a v.32 achieves 9600 bps in
each direction, so theoretically it *could* do 19200 in one direction.
No? If v.32 was set up as a half-duplex system with all of its resources
going one way, it could do 19200 easily. 
  I don't know if v.32bis is full duplex or not, but it does 14,400 bps.
  I would think PEP, using more of the available frequency bandwidth
should be able to get consistently 18,000 bps or higher. Why not?

ps. I own a T2500 and love it, so this isn't meant to be a flame on
Telebit. I just want to know. 

pps. To the fellow at helios.tamu.edu who is forging articles and hates
Telebits: don't bother replying to this, please.,.. :-)
