@ FM MODE switch
This switch serves as both an FM mode and an FM muting switch in
the following way:
01 STEREO (MUTING ON) (released position): Normally set the switch
to this position. During FM reception, when a stereo signal of suf-
ficient strength
is received, the receiver operates
in the stereo
mode,
and
the STEREO
indicator
will illuminate.
If the signal
changes to mono, the receiver will be switched to the mono mode
automatically. When
tuning from station to station during FM
reception, interstation noise is eliminated.
2 MONO
(depressed
position): At this position, the receiver wiil
operate
in
the
mono
mode
and
provide
a monaural
sound
regardless of the mode of input signals, and the muting function is
inoperative. When very weak stations are to be tuned in, or when
an FM program is too noisy, use this position. This will reduce the
noise and enable you to receive weak stations, although the stereo
feature must be sacrificed. In this case, keep the volume down to
avoid possible speaker damage from interstation noise.

this switch (2
ON). To record without the Dolby NR process, press
again and release this switch (01 OFF).
When playing back, set this switch to the same position used in
recording.
* The Dolby NR system reduces tape hiss and improves the signal-to-noise
ratio. During recording, low-level high-frequency signals, which tend to be
obscured
by tape hiss, are boosted so that they are audible above any tape
noise. When these signals are piayed back, the level is lowered to the original
input level so that the level of any tape noise is reduced to the same extent.
