The old NYNEX FM hook up - that takes me back. It seemed amazing at the
time, to get stereo sound on some channels you could tune into them on
your FM radio instead. I didn't have a NICAM TV then, and NICAM support
was a bit hit and miss on the old Scientific Atlanta 8600 series boxes
anyway. And as an added bonus you got a cable exclusive station and a
few international stations thrown in too, like VOA and the BBC World
Service.
