    Is Alan Davenport, author of Kannons & Katapults and Yankee Trader,
    still around. I was wondering if a version of Yankee Trader greater
    than YT36 was ever released. I can't get it to work above 2400 baud
    with Wildcat 5.0. (Please no bad comments about Wildcat, MSI or the
    like. I know the pros and cons.) I was able to get KNK44 to work, it
    does not use the BRUN30.EXE program where as YT36 seems to need it. I
    was hoping a later version of Yankee Trader was released that also does
    not need the BRUN30. Any info would be appreciated.

    From what I understand, 3.6 was the latest version, unfortunately the author no longer has the source code for the door. I recommend TW2002 instead.
