2) with Prodos Utilities v 3.1 speed set-up at:
50-75-110-134.5-150-300-600-1200-1800-2400-3600-7200-9600-19200

2^4 = 16 combination bits, it's clear that utilities do not use any combination, by the way:
at combination 1111 of the 6551 control register, what speed correspond?  19200 or 115200 bit/s
Is it possible exists variant of 6551 IC built in //c ?
