It seems foolish to mention this, given that digital transmission is
not all that far off, but there's no reason they couldn't multiplex
the modem channels by providing simulated carriers at the output end
during periods when the carrier is unmodulated.  The switching would
have to pretty clean when a signal does appear, but I would think
they could do it, if there were enough modem traffic to make the
pinned channels a problem.

Personally, I'd rather have true digital transmission...
