The C64 does not have a serial port as such. It does have a serial buss,
for that was for communicating with the printer, disk drives, cassette
etc.

"External" communication was done via the cartridge edge connector
on the back.
My "Glass TTY" was a HAL ST-6000 interfaced to the edge connector,
and a program written in BASIC to handle the communication to and
from the HAL and to convert 5 level code to ASCII.
There wasn't an issue about "speed" and the interface could be set
to anything you wanted. 45.45, 50, 75, 110 etc.
