(3) STEREO / MTS
The LSM104 incorporates a STEREO/MTS (Multichannel Television Sound) decoder to receive:
STEREO broadcasts (if the station is broadcasting in Stereo)
SAP (Secondary Audio Program) broadcasts. SAP material might be an audio track in an additional
language, or it might be DVS information (Descriptive Video Service ) for the visually impaired.
MONO broadcasts
To select the MTS mode:
Press the TV/Video button as necessary to switch to TV Mode.
Press the MENU Button until "MTS" is selected.
A sub-menu will be displayed as shown below:
Each time you press the VOLUME button, the selection will change in the order STEREO - SAP -
MONO. The chosen mode will change from WHITE to MAGENTA.
Press the MENU button repeatedly until the menu disappears from the screen.
Whenever you change channels or switch the
LSM104 to TV mode, the MTS mode will be displayed
on screen after a brief delay as shown below.
In this example, the station is broadcasting both STEREO and SAP signals. You may also call up this
display at any time by pressing the DISPLAY button on the remote control.
If MONO mode has been selected, the on-screen display will not indicate a STEREO broadcast even if
it is available.
NOTES:
Reception of Stereo or SAP broadcast information is of course dependent on a television station actually
broadcasting such material. Not all stations do, and some stations only broadcast Stereo/SAP material
during part of the day.
If the LSM104 is set to STEREO and no stereo signal is being broadcast, a MONO signal will automati-
cally be received.
A stronger signal is required to receive Stereo or SAP broadcasts. If noise is heard, you can improve the
clarity of the audio signal by switching to MONO reception.
If a received SAP signal is weak, SAP will not be heard.
Some stations broadcast the same audio signal on the SAP band to insure that the viewer will still hear
audio if the television is accidentally set to SAP reception.
Even if both STEREO and SAP are broadcast, only one can be heard at a time.
Transmission of CABLE TV signals differ from off-air TV broadcasts. It is possible that MTS sound may
not be received satisfactorily.

Procedure
1. Press the MENU button as many times as necessary to select "FM MODE".
2. Press the VOLUME+ button as many times as necessary to set FM MODE as desired to "MODE1",
"MODE2" or "OFF".
3A. If "MODE1" was selected in Step 2 above, press the MENU button again to select "FM FREQ.",
then press the VOLUME - or + button repeatedly to choose one of the 4 preset FM Frequencies:
88.3MHz, 88.7MHz, 89.1MHz or 90.3MHz.
-OR-
3B. If "MODE2" was set in Step 2 above, press the MENU button again to select "FM FREQ.", then
press the VOLUME - or + button to choose any FM Frequency from 88.3MHz to 95.0MHz in
0.1MHz (100KHz) increments.
4. Tune the vehicle's radio to the frequency chosen in Step 3 above.
It may be necessary to repeat Step 3, choosing a different frequency each time, before you are able
to receive a satisfactory signal. The best signal is usually obtained by choosing a frequency that is
not actively broadcasting in your area. Also note that better results may be obtained if the vehicle's
antenna can be lowered independently.
Example - Receiving Audio through the FM Radio at 88.7MHz.

OTHER USEFUL FUNCTIONS

MUTE
The most common types of television interference are as follows :
IGNITION NOISE:
Black spots or horizontal lines may appear, picture may
flutter or drift. Usually caused by interference from
automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drills
and other electric appliances.
GHOSTS :
Ghosts are caused by the television signals following two
paths. One is a direct path and the other is reflected from
tall buildings, hills or other objects.
Changing the direction or position of the antenna may
improve the reception.
SNOW :
If you are located on the fringes of a television reception
area, the signal will be weak, and your picture may contain
many small dots.
When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to
install an external sensitive antenna to improve the picture.
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE :
This interference produces moving ripples or diagonal
streaks, and in some cases causes loss of contrast in the
picture.
IMPORTANT NOTE :
WHEN USED IN A VEHICLE, THIS SYSTEM IS INTENDED PRIMARILY AS A MONITOR FOR A
VIDEO CASSETTE PLAYER, VIDEO GAME, OR CAMERA.
TELEVISION BROADCAST RECEPTION WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY CONDITIONS
SUCH AS MOTION, CHANGE OF DIRECTION, ATMOSPHERIC ACTIVITY, AND LOCAL SUR-
ROUNDINGS.
IT IS THEREFORE LIKELY THAT BROADCAST PICTURE QUALITY WILL BE MARGINAL WHEN
THIS SYSTEM IS USED IN A MOBILE ENVIRONMENT.
