Hello Brian,

Hey Brian - your suggestion - in one swoop - has taken me from approx 2.6
to 3.1 Kbytes / sec.

Now the frustrating question - whats that mean? What is the impact of
having control characters sent to you - rather than them being converted.
Is it possible for a control character to close the connection - for
example.

Thanks for your advice - I would like to understand it a bit better.

Regards,
Col.
