To record a NICAM programme, be sure to set “Audio” of “Channel Setting” in “Settings” setup to “NICAM” (default). If the sound is not clear when listening to NICAM broadcasts, set “Audio” to “Standard” (see “Channel Setting” on page 68).

zHint

You can select the audio (main or sub) while recording

bilingual programmes using the (audio) button. This does not affect the recorded sound.
