Please log in for more thread options My internet-access fantasy involves dial-up modem telecommunications technology devices which use PSK [Phase Shift Keying] as the modulation scheme. This too-good-to-be-true PSK uses only 1-symbol-per-second but with a Graham's-number amount of bits-per-symbol. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham's_number Now that is a lot of bits-per-baud! If it were possible for such PSK to exist, what would be the disadvantages of it? Thanks, Radium | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
