Interesting. I've been trying to get a WiFi device
for the Commodore
8-bits working consistently in 9600 bps mode, and have just been
assuming the garbage characters I get when I receive a screenful of text
all at once were due to buffer overruns. The garbage characters there
look like actual garbage, not like partial CSIs like [3;1m or whatever.
Unless you're using an ACIA cartridge, 9600bps on the C128 is problematic,
and impossible on the C64. But I find that I never get it to work
non-problematically except when I use that one terminal emulator using
the C128's VDC for display.
I would imagine 2MHz mode certainly makes a difference here. I don't know if
NovaTerm runs the 8502 at that speed, but I would be surprised if it didn't.
