Anything between 300bps (on the HF bands) and 1.2Mbps, although the latter
is a highly experimental system designed by Slovenian hams. I hope we
(my father and I) can report success with such a system some time next year...
Japanese hams seem to be actively developing an 800kbps spread spectrum
system. There was a demonstrator running at this year's ham fair. The
Phase 3D satellite will have a 256kbps modem on board.

As you can see, lots of high speed activities. But don't consider anything
above 9600bps as mainstream.
