Did you have any success at 300-1200 bps first? With 2400/5200, the law of diminishing returns applies, meaning experimental dumps that need some massaging in a sample editor. Also, did you ONLY try the setting of -G2 -GF10, or did you try -F8, -F-10, -F20, etc.?

5200bps 96KHZ and 2400bps 44KHZ are also successful!
