monaural sound.
If the stereo broadcast has a weak signal, you may get better results if the AUDIO MODE is set
to MONO for recording. Also, set to MONO if the STEREO indicator on the front panel flickers.
In order to listen to Hi-Fi stereo playback, the Combination VCR AUDIO (L/R) jacks must be
connected to a stereo amp and speakers.
There may be a difference in audio level between Hi-Fi and normal audio playback.
