Most TNC's have built in 202 type modems which work half duplex at
1200 baud.  Speed and operational limitations of amateur radio won't
apply if you use the same scheme over a mobile telephone channel,
but for noise and bandwidth considerations, you shouldn't expect
much success over 1200 baud.  Of course, most file transfer proto-
cols won't work in this mode, since it's essentially half duplex.
