The
Co-Operator can be used
for transmitter
protection
only,
or
it
can be used
for
transmitter protection
and
level control.
For
FM
broadcast,
we
recommend
both
level control
and
transmitter protection for
talk,
popular music,
light classics,
rock,
and
similar formats.
Level
control
may
not
be
desirable in
some
situations,
such
as
with
classical
music
intended
for serious
listening.
The
following
assumes
that
a

used
to
determine
