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 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 above).
●
"O.S.D." must be set to "ON" or the on-screen displays will not appear (
