  • Patent number: 4672468
    Abstract: A VTR is furnished with a phase-locked loop whose reference input is a color signal subcarrier. The phase-locked loop fixes two sound FM carrier frequencies in constant relationships with the frequency of the color signal subcarrier, thereby to stabilize the carrier frequencies. The two sound FM carrier frequencies are respectively selected to be integral times of f.sub.H /2 (where f.sub.H denotes the frequency of a horizontal synchronizing signal). The frequencies of the beats between both the sound carrier are fixed to integral times of f.sub.H /2, with the result that the degradation of a reproduced picture attributed to the beats is prevented.
