Greetings Carey,
 
I happened to read your article to Joe Frankiewitz about the v32 Terbo.
 
I used to have a text file on the "NEW" v32 standard.  It described in
detail all of the advantages of this "NEW" tech knowledge.  
 
It was clearly stated that 19.2 would be possible with this "NEW" Bell
Laboritories blessed creation, soon to be accepted a new modem standard.
It was quite a while ago, and I had that TXT FILE for the longest time.
I would love to send you a copy, but I lost all of that data in a H/D
crash.  You can however look thru old NIGHTOWL CD-ROMS, I know it was
on either #8 or #9 or #10B. (Do you remember the stink about the original
N.O.#10 having a virus) Recalled all of the #10 and released #10B
 
I used to run a COMMODORE BBS on a C-64 & (2) 1541 Floppies in 1987, I 
move up to a USED XT in 1990.  Added a 1X CD-ROM in Late 92, that was
about the time #8 & #9 were released.  I paid $ 396.00 for my first
INTEL 14.4 EX in early 1993.  It was shortly after that I saw the
text file about the v32 "IN THE FUTURE"
 
I know it don't help much, but whatever USR, or anybody else says,
from the time it was envisioned, until actually came ON-LINE the v32
standard was 19.2 Terbo.
 
I do however have some actual printed information that came with my
Digicom 14.4 D/F Modem that came with the software upgrade to 19.2
if that will help.  I to describes the origins, and design of v32 Terbo.
 
Even with the upgrade it never hit 19.2, except with another 19.2 Terbo
Modem.  Treu Satement!
