BITS/BAUD/CHANNEL varies from 2-6 for each channel in use. There are 7
bauds/second, and 512 channels. This leads to a maximum 21504 bits per
second without compression. Real throughput will be between 12000 and 18000
bits per second, with 14000 typical for a good phone line. PEP does not
compress, so that's the real data transfer rate.
