Setting ghost reduction
This VCR is equipped with the ghost reduction function.
It reduces the ghosts using a GCR (Ghost Canceller
Reference) signal sent from a TV station. The ghost
reduction mode can be set for each channel
independently and manually.
NOTES:
Ghosts may not be reduced in the following cases:
The broadcasting signal does not have a GCR signal.
The antenna is not connected correctly.
There are too many ghosts.
The signal is reflecting from moving objects (airplane, etc.).
The images on the screen may be distorted when tuning from
one channel to another or the power is turned on while the
ghost reduction function is activated.

What is a “ghost”?
Double images of a TV program, or a “ghost”, is a
common problem with TV reception in urban areas. A
broadcasting signal, reflected from some surfaces (building,
mountain, etc.), arrives slightly later than the signals
arriving directly from the TV station. This causes such
ghosts as follows:
Double images
– Faint images
Distorted images
Distorted colors
Vertically jittered images
