IS>> Nope, even MNP4 won't take you past about 118% (1700 cps at 

IS>> 14400, 3400 at 28800, so about 3967 cps at 33600). 



 BG> That still doesn't explain the 4000cps which was physically seen here on 

 BG> one

 BG> particular 1.5Mb file transfer between David's Courier and mine (and 

 BG> which was

 BG> witnessed by Russell Brooks at the time).

IS>> A 48K file will give you about a +/-8% error in recording 

IS>> (ie, +/-300cps!) at one second resolution, at 33600.  Even 

IS>> 480K is too small for really definitive throughput figures 

IS>> at that rate (still approx +/-30cps).  Quoting transfers of 

IS>> 1Mb or greater starts to make timing artifacts look 

IS>> relatively insignificant.



 BG> Agreed.  In fact, several smaller log entries here (say 50Kb or so) show 

 BG> speeds

 BG> in excess of 4000cps, but these are obviously inaccurate. Not so with 

 BG> 1500Kb

 BG> though, where a second or two either way is not likely to make much 

 BG> difference

 BG> at all to the calculated overall cps rate.



IS>> So close to seeing those (some say) 'magic' extra zeroes, but so far :)



 BG> Still reckon the 4000cps I saw with Russ was genuine...  :)

The mass's are not listening to either of us this time round either.

Next time we try this test  we will invite YOU ALL to see for yourselves

& that way you can believe your own eyes.



Mind you, this only happened twice in the ONE day.



Maybe the planets were aligned and Frank Blount was out to lunch.
