Default How do you determine the data rate capacity of a channel allocation?

I'm not sure where else to ask this question, but I guess since this
group deals with antennas then maybe you guys are familiar with this.
This is regarding HDTV broadcast:

"Because of the 6 MHz. channel bandwidth allocated, each channel will
only support a data rate of 19.2 Mb/sec."

How is 19.2Mb/sec calculated?

Thanks!
