	That's odd. I'm using 9600-N81 (though 38400 should work)  with
XON/XOFF flow control and DTR/DSR handshake on my DEC VT-320. Without DTR
and/or DSR you're likely to see the behavior you're getting.

	Usually it's just a matter of opening up the Switching reg and
moving a slide on wire from one post to another. I'd rather not open my
switching reg unless you want me to look. Can anyone vouch for if the 2xx
series at least is autoswitching?
