According to the information in the help files from Multipsk:

1200 baud Packet = 1320 wpm

BPSK125 = 148 wpm capital and 204 wpm small letter average speed at 
about -8 db S/N

Of course this assumes that both have good signal strengths and there 
are no hits. If the PSK125 mode takes a hit it keeps on sending and the 
receiving station gets errors. If the packet receiving station gets 
errors, it requires retries and since this mode also requires much 
greater signal strength to operate, it can easily have zero throughput 
and time out eventally after many retries. Packet may need something 
like +8 db S/N to function. This means it is about the same or slightly 
worse than the OFDM mode used in digital SSTV programs.

Anyone else have more real world numbers?
