Well, you can turn off compression and see if that helps, but 1800cps
on your setup might not be a reality.  Personally, I think your figures
are reasonable.  I have a 386/25 that's tuned to a gnat's @ and I get
900-1100 with my feed consistently (Telebit-to-Telebit).  With another
site, I get a little over 1900 cps.  To a v.32bis site at 14.4, I'm
seeing 900-1100, as well (he has a similar setup as mine).

Ask your feed to provide you with some names and phone numbers of the
folks getting 1800cps consistently, and ask them how they're doing it.
