The DL11 controller has a crystal that does odd baud

one by any of my terminals is 110 baud (I think the crystal in it is like
408.xxxx or somesuch. I read in the docs that you can use a different
crystal and get more "common" (and higher) baud rates. The docs tell me what
speed crystal to get - but is this crystal something I can just order from
jameco/digikey/whoever and plug it in? The docs sound like it is only a
crystal swap required. Correct?
The crystal swap for the KL8E would be a 5.0688MHz... might that be
it? In any case, AFAIK, besides a crystal swap, the only think you
might check is how many stop bits it's strapped for. With 110 bps, it
might be set up to work with an ASR-33 which wants 2. Terminals,
being non-mechanical, are happy with 2 or 1.
