[Color Computer][Coco] DLOAD mystery

[Neil Morrison]

Clearly it's one of those things that never got fixed, so bugs in the timing 
are not impossible.

DLOADM works fine on my system.  I'm typing it from the command prompt,
though.  The problem I'm having is with DLOAD *or* DLOADM.  The command
sets the delay factor to 44 for 1200bps and 44*4 for 300bps, when actually
a delay of 41 appears to be the best match for 1200bps on all CoCos...?

If that's not the problem, and the difference in 41 and 44 doesn't really
matter then I'm having a start bit problem, because when a 138 is sent from
the DLOAD command, the PC recieves a 10 most of the time, and occasionally
a 138.
