Unfortunately.. . "BREAK"s are very disruptive and it takes "mucho
electronic cycles" to effect the actual speed change .. . so  
always use "delays" with "BREAK"s.  Then try one or two more
logins at "that new speed" before trying the "next one". THIS CAN
BE IMPORTANT IF THE CALLED SITE HASN'T RECOVERED BACK TO ITS
GROUND STATE SPEED. If you call at 1200 and he first answers at 
300 then switches to 1200 only use ONE "BREAK".  If you need two 
breaks only use TWO "BREAK"s.  As: if you call at 300 and he answers 
at 2400, then breaks to 1200, then breaks to 300.  After each break 
you will need two or three "EOT"  or delays.  On some uucico's this 
can be expressed as \d.

So consider the following double break line (calling a 2400/1200/300)
baud modem supported computer.
       (The sample line has been broken at the backslash)

sys1 Any ACU 300 5557222 login:-BREAK-EOT-EOT--log\
in:--login:-BREAK-EOT-EOT--login:--login: uucp word: burfle
