[BC] FM Stereo Question

[Mike McCarthy]

Maybe..maybe not.  Current processors don't have a "switch" per-say.  Our
Omnia's require a real change to the pilot injection inside the "ENCODE"
section.  And even then, make sure the unit is not encoding the stereo
subcarriers with no pilot. You WILL gain some loudness when the stero
subcarriers are off and then compensated for. A 2nd level adjustment
between stereo and mono.

In our case, we needed modify the DIGITS we use with TWO level pots and a
latching relay between then to switch between mono and stereo.  When the
mono goes off, the gain is set higher to sustain 100% modulation.
