Choose Edit. pick the entry(ies) giving you trouble. Pop the serial window. Change it to 19.2K or whatever you use. Do this for each affected entry. Save the phonebook. Wasn't that simple? I had the same problem, only with term type, when I switched from vt100 to vt102 and did not realize the defaults were seperate from the phone book defaults PER entry. >* When configured as a VT-100 or VT-102 with N-color screen type > (i.e. *not* Workbench), JR-Comm's screen will flash after making > a connection. Workaround: use the WB screen type (or VLT :-)). The flash is the 'visible beep'. Go to the general menu (right amiga-8) and set the 'audible beep' Now nothing will occur if you have your monitor's sound turned down. >* When switching screen types between WB and N-color, the Workbench > screen colors change.

You could set jrcomm to 4-color mode, set up the palette EXACTLY as workbench, save it for the defaults and each phonebook entry, and there would never be a change. >That's it for now.
