There is a bug in SMSQ/E v2.98 for QXL that trigers characters lost
when sending data via serial and parallele port. The work around is
to reduce the serial/parallele buffer to 1 character (PAR_BUFF 1 in
your case) but this is also to say that the maximum speed will drop
down to 2000cps (as with older SMSQ/E version)...
This bug was reported (together with some others) to Tony in June,
but no bugfix has been issued so far... :-(
QDOS/SMS forever !
