Receiving Stereo Broadcasts
Your TV is fully capable of reproducing stereo sound from
TV stations transmitting stereo sound in your area. All you
have to do to enjoy stereo sound is to make sure the TV's
STEREO/SAP
function is set to STEREO SOthe TV can receive
stereo broadcasts.
Normally this function can be left in the STEREO mode.
Your TV will then automatically reproduce either stereo or
monaural sound, whichever is broadcast.
In some fringe viewing areas, however, the stereo signal
may not be strong enough for quality reception. The signal
may drift, or the reproduction may become noisy. Should
that occur, change the STEREO/SAP function to the MONO
mode to receive clearer, cleaner sound.
Helpful Hint: Some television stations lransmit a "pilot" signal that
makes your TV think it's receiving stereo, even though the broadcast
signal is monaural. The "pilot" signal will make the stereo indicator
appear on the screen next to the channel number, however, you will not
be able to hear stereo sound. If the stereo indicator appears but you can
not hear stereo sound _check with the television station to inquire
whetherthe program being broadcasiis in stereo or monaural audio. •

Receiving SAP Broadcasts
Some TV stations that broadcast stereo also broadcast
another audio program called SAP. SAP stands for Second
Audio Program and is sometimes used to broadcast a
second audio track for a bilingual movie.
Because SAP is only available with stereo broadcasts, the
TV's STEREO/SAP function must be in the STEREO m ode to see
if SAP audio is available. After you have set the
STEREO/SAP
function to the STEREO mode, your TV will
display the word STEREO next to the channel number when
stereo audio is being received. If SAP audio is also
available, your TV will display an asterisk (*) after the
word
STEREO (STEREO*).
You can then listen to the SAP audio by changing the
STEREO/SAP function to its SAPsetting as explained below.
Although SAP audio is transmitted with the stereo signal,
it is not broadcast in stereo. That means the SAP audio
will.be monaural sound.
Your TV will reproduce SAP audio until you change
channels.
