Each data is decoded into 2 bits, that is 4 possible values. That's why a 1200 baud modem can work full duplex over a phone line and be roughly the same bandwidth as a 300 baud modem. Any phase discrepencies become critical as these modems use the phase angle for detection of which of the 4 quadrants the signal is in. I haven't looked close at the higher speed modems, but I believe they use phase angle and amplitude to divide each datum into more and more bits. mikey at trsvax
