than the main audio for the program. This feature is called
Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS). The TV with MTS
can receive mono sound, stereo sound
and Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP feature
allows a TV station to broadcast other information, which
could be audio in another language or something completely
different like weather information.
You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP broadcasts
where available.

events, shows and concerts in dynamic stereo sound.
