Second Audio Program

KLRU offers an enhanced audio signal as part of the Second Audio Program channel (SAP). You can use SAP to receive the main audio channel, a second language such as Spanish translation, descriptive information on the program or material totally unrelated to what is being viewed.


What is SAP?


Most television sets provide this second audio program channel for increased stereo reception but it can be used for other features as well. This is in addition to the left/right stereo signals and is a separate audio source.

 

Use of the SAP channel includes:

  • Spanish translation or other language translation
  • Descriptive information about the program
  • Duplication of main audio (mono)
  • Audio unrelated to the program Many programs come with no third channel.

    Therefore, if you have no audio check to see if SAP has been selected. The main audio channel will be in mono if you select to listen to through SAP.

To Select the SAP Channel on Your Television

  • Consult the owner's manual of your television to find out how to select your SAP channel. If you can't find it, call the store where you purchased the television.


  • Generally the SAP is either a mechanical switch labeled "stereo-mono-sap" or a menu accessed programming function.
