Receiving NICAM Stereo
And Bilingual Programmes
Your recorder is equipped with a Digital stereo sound
decoder (NICAM), making reception of stereo and
bilingual broadcasts possible.
When the recorder is tuned to a different station, the type
of broadcast being received will be displayed on the TV
screen for a few seconds.
To listen to a stereo programme, press AUDIO until
"HI FI L R" appears on the screen.
To listen to a bilingual programme, press AUDIO until
"HI FI L " or "HI FI R" appears on the screen (as
required).
To listen to the Standard (regular monaural) audio while
receiving a NICAM broadcast, press AUDIO until
"NORM" appears on the front display panel or on the
screen.
NOTES:
The NICAM audio programme will be recorded on the
Hi-Fi 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.
Before playing back a programme recorded in stereo, or a
bilingual programme, refer to "Soundtrack Selection" (See
below).
"O.S.D." must be set to "ON" or the on-screen displays
will not appear (
pg. 33).
