I am a nivice when it comes to discussing higher baud modems. I believe most
high speed BBS use a USR HST or USR DS. Now I was wondering, if I used a
normal 9600bps v.32 modem (of coures with v.42/v.42bis) to a USR HST (not
DS) at what speed would I be coonected to? Would it be 2400bps?
	On the other hand, if I called a 9600bps v.32 modem using a USR HST,
would that be the same speed as before?
	I know the best solution is the DS, but not everyone can afford the
extra $300 or so...
	Thanks for your replies!
