Analog modems are enabled to better learn the slicing levels employed at the interface to a digital transmission network by reducing the effects of the various noise sources. Initially a training sequence is received to preliminarily adjust the analog modem's equalizer. Thereafter, a special training sequence, protected against intersymbol interference, is employed to collect samples of each slicing level, to ascertain the least mean squared value of each slicing level from the received samples and to obtain the channel's impulse response at each slicing level. Thereafter, the analog modem's equalizer may be fine tuned in accordance with the channel impulse response ascertained at each slicing level.
