Additional Info
ITA-2
The first group of tones contains 8 tones (1 - 8) and the second group the tones 5 - 8. Tones 1 - 4 of the
second group are not defined.
Coquelet-8 is a synchronous system with a tone duration of 75.0 ms, 50.0 ms or 37.5 ms. One ITA-2
character is transmitted in 75 or 150 ms, which is equivalent to 50 or 100 Bd Baudot with 1.5 stop bits
(codeword length 7.5 Bit).
An IDLE sequence is sent when no traffic is at hand. Transmissions start with a synchronization preamble,
and end with several EOT characters.
