10. FM RECEPTION  
® TUNER  
Signal Actuated Stereo Control  
(SASC)  
Understanding the Difficulties of  
FM Reception in Your Car  
In weak signal conditions, the SASC circuit will  
provide optimum, low noise reception. As the  
signal weakens, stereo separation is smoothly  
converted to a monaural signal with a gradual  
cut-backon high frequency reproduction, mini-  
mizing hissand noise.  
FM radio waves are transmitted in the very high  
frequency range (VHF). These waves move in  
straight lines, much like light. Tall buildings, hills  
and mountains, or other obstructions may cause  
shadowsor loss of signal, noted by a momen-  
tary hissingnoise in the reception.  
These obstructions found in day-to-day urban  
travel can reflect or bounce the signal. When  
reflected and direct signals arrive at the radios  
antenna together, a similar noise problem may  
occur, called multi-path interference.  
Balanced Mixer FM Front-End –  
Dual-Gate FET  
The balanced mixer pre-amp section is designed  
to provide a uniform signal to the tuner creat-  
ing the best possible noise-free reception. A  
variable gain stage automatically controls the  
amplitude of the signal according to the incom-  
ing signal strength. As the signal deteriorates or  
weakens, the gain is increasedto ensure the  
highest quality signal with the least amount of  
noise. When signal strength becomes very  
strong, the gain is reduced, avoiding unneces-  
sary distortion.  
In addition, the vehicle itself can be the culprit,  
creating various types of impulse noise (usually  
associated with the vehicles ignition and/or  
other parts of the electrical system), which again  
will deteriorate signal quality.  
Triple Stage Narrow Band IF Filters  
The new triple stage IF and ceramic filter system  
enables the tuner to focuson the selected fre-  
quency ignoring stronger or nearer stations to  
prevent frequency hopping.With this type of  
narrow band filtering, the selectivity of the tuner  
can be increased.  
The  
® AM/FM Tuner  
combines both AM and FM  
®
tuners into one small, unique package. The  
design incorporates many advanced technolo-  
gies exclusively engineered to improve FM and  
AM performance.
