I don't really want to be pedantic, but...

    v.42 is "correction"
    v.42bis is "compression"

    Why do you not want v.42 correction, or MNP correction?

My own preference is v.42+v.42bis.  For windows of 7, that gives me the
best throughput, typically MNP4+300 cps over 14.4 connections.  Your
milage may vary, of course.
