Nope.

The entry is what my NC made when he assigned me a node many years ago.
Reading the nodelist today, I can see that you are right about the 300
versus 9600 ( which was the baud rate of my modem when I had one).  I
understand your point about the XX, I seem to recall that it simply
indicated the type of mailer I had which has been IM and then Argus.
BUT, I do operate a BBS with users even though I do not accept incoming
connects -- and never have done so.

I'll send a netmail to my NC and mention that the XX should be removed
and baud rate changed to 300.
