Has anyone an idea, or experienced what happens on the positions of the source switch of the Dirigent, in the case of an FM stereo version ?
So far i found the diagram of the non-fm-stereo and even there the rotary wiring is unclear.
It seems the fm-stereo only plays on 1 channel when switched to FM-B, no idea if this is ok...
It's OK.
The first FM stereo test-broadcasts was done using two FM (mono) frequencies, one for left and another for right, thus requiring two receivers.You could use the FM-B setting, in which the Dirigent would receive one of the channels and send it to one speaker output.You could then connect a second receiver (f.e. a Beolit) to the Dirigents Radio socket and tune it to the second frequency.The Dirigent would then send its signal to the other speaker output, thereby reproducing the stereo signal.I deliberately use past tense because the 2x Mono = Stereo broadcasts was soon dropped in favour of the MPX encoding.
Today, you need the optional MPX stereo decoder to produce stereo, in which case the FM-A setting should be used exclusively.

Ah, ok, never seen this on any receiver/radio, but interesting.
thanks !
