A method and apparatus are provided for use in a transceiver of a wireless system that enable analog mode operations to be performed using in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) values. When operating in the analog mode, the apparatus comprises a processor that receives digital I, Q pairs relating to audio or data signals and performs FM demodulation to generate information content relating to the audio or data signals. When receiving data in the analog mode, the data is in a particular format. In order to decode the data, the processor looks at each bit of the data for five repeats of Radio Link Words (RLWs) and generates and stores a confidence factor associated with each bit. The confidence factor is based on how closely the waveform represents a 1 or a 0 as well as the signal strength. If the waveform has relatively little noise and if the RF signal strength is relatively high, the processor assigns more weight to its determination as to whether the waveform represents a 1 or a 0. Once this process has been performed for each repeat of the current RLW, the processor takes the sum of the confidence factors associated with each bit and compares the sum to a threshold level to determine whether the bit is a 1 or a 0. A signaling tone detection routine is utilized to distinguish between when data is being received and when signaling tone is being received.
