[net.video] MTS Decoder Question

pjk@hou2a.UUCP (P.KEMP) (05/07/85)

In the June issue of Video Review magazine,
there is mention of a MTS decoder (p. 48) designed
for TV sets and VCRs without MPX outputs for
recovering stereo audio.

The Viditek SRF-220 is supposed to decode
the Stereo and SAP signals using the RF
output of a VCR (VHF channel 3 or 4).

I didn't think that such a scheme would
work due to the way the audio signal is
demodulated and remodulated (by a simple
RF modulator) in the average VCR.

Does anyone know for sure if this method
would/wouldn't work?
