The 75 Baud 1.5 stop bits is the easy part of the equation, since most
PC serial ports can be set to those parameters, and those that can't
can be set to 75 Baud 2 stop bits, which will usually work.

As far as Baudot is concerned, is that Baudot-5 or Baudot-6 ???

Whichever it is, you will need to set the serial port to the relevant
word length, and assign a driver to that serial port that performs the
translations between Baudot and ASCII.

The problem is that some serial ports can only be set to 7 or 8 bit
modes, in which case you will probably need to obtain an extra serial
port of a type that can be set to 5 or 6 bit operation, as applicable.

That shouldn't make any difference.

Best wishes from Riley.
