Lefty, Problem solved! I was using Arduino-022 earlier but now downloaded Arduino 1.0 which, I think by using the latest version of AVR, allows uploading sketches using non-standard baud rates, including 28800.Got that fact from this post: Optiboot with FTDI Problems.. - #20 by tim7 - Microcontrollers - Arduino Forum
That is good news. Good luck on your project.
