I do not claim to be an expert on this, but I thought that I would throw in a data point. I used 100 feet of unshielded phone wire (radio shack 22 g.) at 9600 baud with no difficulty. There were no errors, even while doing file xfer, no interference from or to the cable. Well, that I noticed, anyway. I remember being led to believe, on the basis of a table in the Kermit book (yellow cover) that I would have spotty results with 9600/100 ft. ----------------------->"Lay on, McDuff, 14th c. ideals in a 21st c. world David Paigen and damn'd be he N: PLO Bush IRA CIA KKK TRW Financial Systems who first cries, S: terrorism pipe bomb kill paigen@tfs.com 'hold, enough!'"
