Receiving NICAM Stereo
And Bilingual Programmes
(HR-J645EK/ES Only)
Your recorder is equipped with a Digital stereo sound decoder
(NICAM), making reception of stereo and bilingual broadcasts
possible.
When the recorder is tuned to a different station, the type of
broadcast being received will be displayed on the TV screen for
a few seconds.

broadcast will be received in monaural with better quality.
