Duane,
I suggest you got a dud.  Mine's been working fine at 2400 baud for the
nine months I've had it.  Never found a glitch in text transmission.
Only once noticed a possible glitch in binary transmission, but it was
caught by the software and retransmitted (that portion, anyway).
Either I'm lucky or you're not!
