Receiving Stereo And
Bilingual Programmes
Your recorder is equipped with a Sound-Multiplex decoder (A2) and,
if you own the HR-J658EH, a Digital stereo sound decoder
(NICAM) as well, making reception of stereo and bilingual broad-
casts possible.
When the channel is changed, the type of broadcast being
received will be displayed on the TV screen for a few seconds.
To Record Stereo And
Bilingual Programmes (A2)
●
Stereo programmes are automatically recorded in stereo on
the Hi-Fi audio track (with the normal audio track recording
mixed L and R channel sound).
●
Bilingual programmes are automatically recorded in bilingual
on the Hi-Fi audio track. The main soundtrack will be recorded
on the normal audio track.
●
To listen to a stereo programme, press
AUDIO
until
"HIFI L R" appears on the screen.
●
To listen to a bilingual programme, press
AUDIO
until
"HIFI L " or "HIFI R" appears on the screen (as required).
●
To listen to the Standard (regular monaural) audio while
receiving a NICAM broadcast, press

until "NORM"
appears on the screen. (HR-J658EH only)
NOTE:
"O.S.D." must be set to "ON" or the on-screen displays will not
appear (
