In this example the 15 and 35 Hz signals have suffered a phase shift (which can be caused as a result of different propagation speeds) with respect to the 5 and 25 Hz signals. The pulse shape changes significantly.

Orange Bars are average voltage over that symbol interval.
Averages are less likely to be way off the mark.SSD P(BE) = 0.3759, MFD P(BE) = 0.000783 (10 samples/bit)
