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
function is set to
STEREO/SAP STEREO
stereo broadcasts.
Normally this function can be left in the
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
mode to receive clearer, cleaner sound.
Helpful Hint: Some television stations transmit 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
whether the program being broadcast is 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 function must be in the
STEREO/SAP
if SAP audio is available. After you have set the
function to the
STEREO/SAP
display the word next to the channel number when
STEREO
stereo audio is being received. If SAP audio is also
available, your TV will display an asterisk ( * ) after the
word ( * ).

You can then listen to the SAP audio by changing the
function to its
STEREO/SAP SAP
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.
