For modem to modem communications, start and stop bits were used up through 2400 baud when one bit = one tone. The method of one bit = one tone was dropped for other forms of encoding when modems started supporting connection speeds in excess of 2400 baud.
I assume you mean 2400 bps modems, i.e., v.22bis? Admittedly, it's been a while since I used one, but my recollection is that 2400 bps modems operate at 600 baud, with 4 bits/baud using QAM.
All said, I still stand by my comment that 53 modems per T1 is ludicrous.
This, without a doubt, is true. :) -- Robert Szarka Managing Partner, Operations DownCity, LLC +1 860 823 3000
