The effect of sine phase vs cosine phase ordering of the data bytes were tested empirically by generating random data as sine phase data, then reordering that data manually to simulate the cosine phase data. The resulting images below clearly show that the procedure itself does not result in images that approximately mirror each other. Therefore, the approximate mirror images obtained with the sine vs cosine orders of reading the bits are not due to the phase difference between the sinusoidal patterns used to read the bits.
