Hi,
I visited the SCS homepage a few days ago and read
some pages about PACTOR. SCS claimed that with the
newest PACTOR III it should be possible to get a
maximum net throughput with online data compression of
ca. 5200 Bit/sec.
Could this be the truth or is this more a myth.

Yes, that is correct, however its probably under perfect conditions ;-) Pactor III is very fast and adapts speed to cater for link quality. Link path quality can drop badly but the the modem can fallback to Pactor II to keep the link, but at a much slower speed.
