Hermes will allow 19200 nominal - with up to just under 14000 throughput
in and 19200 out.
superHermes LITE gives a full 19200 throughput both directions.

superHermes will give up to 230400.
Needless to say even a Gold Card equipped QL cannot handle that.
A baud rate of 57600 will give full two-way throughput on a
supergoldcard QL which is not doing too much else.
