I would certainly be interested, especially if the specification
in the first paragraph has been updated to replace "9600" with
either "38400" or a higher number.
I should be in the QRZ database at http://www.qrz.com under my UK
callsign - yes I am, I've just checked, and everything is already
correct there...
