CAPTION / TEXT
Closed captioning is a process which converts the audio
portion of a television program into written words which
then appear as subtitles on the television screen. Closed
captions allow viewers to read the dialogue and narration
of television programs.

Captions are the subtitles of the dialogue and narration
of television programs. For prerecorded programs, pro-
gram dialogue can be arranged into captions in advance.
Its possible to caption a live program by using a process
called real-time captioning, which creates captions
instantly. Real-time captioning is normally done by pro-
fessional reporters using a machine shorthand system

system for the hearing-
impaired, and it can also
aid in teaching language
skills.
1. Poor reception conditions are encountered:
• I I G G N N I I T T I I O O N N : :
Picture may flutter, drift, suffer from
black spots, or horizontal streaking.
Usually caused by interference from
automobile ignition systems, neon
lamps, electrical drills, and other
electrical appliances.
• G G H H O O S S T T S S : :
Ghosts are caused when the TV sig-
nal splits and follows two paths.
One is the direct path and the other
is reflected off tall buildings, hills or
other objects. Changing the direc-
tion or position of the antenna may
improve reception.
• S S N N O O W W : :
If your receiver is located at the
weak, fringe area of a TV signal, your
picture may be marred by small
dots. It may be necessary to install a
special antenna to improve the pic-
ture.
2. An old, bad, or illegally recorded tape is being played.
3. Strong, random signals from a car or airplane interfere
with the TV signal.
4. The signal from the antenna is weak.
5. The program wasn't captioned when it was produced,
transmitted, or taped.
