When your VCR is recording, it actually records the audio portion
of a program twice: once on the stereo Hi-Fi tracks, and once on
the mono track. Additionally, your VCR is able to receive
Separate Audio Program broadcasts, also known as an SAT'
broadcast. A SAP broadcast is an alternative audio soundtrack for
your program; it is often a version in another language.
You can use the normal recording function to 1,ell the VCR if you
would like to record the SAP broadcast on the mono track. If so,
choose SAP. Otherwise, choose L+R. In either case, the main
program is recorded on the stereo Hi-Fi track. Also, if there is no
SAP broadcast, the VCR will record the main program on the
mono track.
