The NICAM system is a ground-based TV service for digital
stereo sound. To receive NICAM broadcasts, the NV-F65
incorporates a NICAM decoder.
When a stereo, dual-soundtrack or monaural NICAM
programme is being received, the indicators light up to
inform you of the type of broadcasts. The NICAM pro
grammes are always accompanied by standard broadcasts
and you can select the desired soundtrack for recording
with a single switch. NICAM soundtracks can only be
recorded on the hi-fi audio track.
Preparation
• Set the Input Signal Selector to “Tuner”.
