FM
DE-EMPHASIS
SWITCH
At present both normal and Dolbyized FM broadcast programs are being transmitted with
pre-emphasis time constant of 75 microsecond.
However if the Dolbyized FM broadcasting is approved by F.C.C., this pre-emphasis time
constant
for Dolbyized
FM
broadcast will be changed
to 25 microsecond.
The
FM
DE-
EMPHASIS switch provided on the rear of Model 4230 is used for switching the time constants.
After the permission
of Dolbyized
FM
broadcasting,
set the switch
to 25uS
position. This
automatically change the time constant to 75uS while the DOLBY switch is placed in other than
DOLBY
FM
positions
(namely
normal
FM
broadcast
position),
thus, the de-emphasis
time
constnat for each normal and Dolbyized FM reception wil! be correctly set.
