The Telephone Manager should not drop characters at 1200 baud
on a no-protocol file transfer.  Perhaps you do not have
flow control turned on?  In particular, the 3B2 should be set
with "stty ixon -ixany".
You can get a umodem program (public domain or commercial)
for your 3B2 and use the Telephone Manager on the PLUS with that.
Or, you can use uucp at up to 4800 baud.
