May I suggest you try the Sealink protocol.  If I remember corrrectly
this protocol was written expressly to overcome the propagation delays
incountered in satelite links etc.

A unix/xenix version is available.  It can be found on the alphacm system
in either the unix or unix2 file section.  The telephone number is 1 714
898-8634.
