FM stations transmit a 19 kHz pilot signal in addition to the
broadcast program. Sometimes this pilot signal may leak
into the audio output depending on the tuner and broadcast
conditions. This signal can cause improper operation of the
Dolby NR systems. Activating the MPX filter (B TYPE/C
TYPE MPX ON settings) will effectively remove the signal.
