Subject: Re: Kaypro connected to LAN at 9600 baud

The Kaypro is too slow to run at 9600 baud for terminal emulation.

I had a Kaypro 2 and now have a Kaypro 10. Neither machine can put
characters on the screen much faster than 1800 baud when using
Kermit (or other terminal emulation programs). 

It may be possible to buffer the arriving characters and
compensate for the slowness of the rom-based screen handling routines
if interrupt routines are used to avoid losing characters during
"expensive" operations (scrolling, clear display, etc.).

For file transfers I regularly use 9600/19200 baud when directly
connected to Unixes or other micros.
