Receiving Stereo And Bilin-
gual Programmes
(HR-J747MS only)
Your recorder is equipped with a Sound-Multiplex decoder (A2) and
a Digital stereo sound decoder (NICAM) as well, making reception
of stereo and bilingual broadcasts possible.
When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being
received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
Simulcast Recording
If FM simulcast TV programmes are available, you can record the
TV programme with the soundtrack from an FM-broadcast. In the
simulcast mode, the external audio programme is recorded on the
audio track (both Hi-Fi and normal).

gual Programmes (A2)
(HR-J747MS only)
● Stereo programmes are automatically recorded in stereo on
the Hi-Fi audio track (with the normal audio track recording
mixed L and R channel sound).
● Bilingual programmes are automatically recorded in bilingual
on the Hi-Fi audio track. The main soundtrack will be recorded
on the normal audio track.
To Record NICAM Stereo
And Bilingual Programmes
(HR-J747MS only)

audio track, and the Standard audio programme on the
normal audio track.

If the quality of stereo sound being received is poor, the
broadcast will be received in monaural with better quality.
