carrier for high fidelity performance
5 Sensitivity at 45 dB signal-to-noise ratio (input
level of main sound carrier)
6 Effective frequency range
7 Channel unbalance
8 Total harmonic distortion
9 Variation of the total harmonic distortion with time
10 Channel separation (stereo)
11 Cross-talk attenuation for two separate sound
channels
12 Unweighted (band limited) signal-to-noise ratio
13 Weighted signal-to-noise ratio
14 AM suppression ratio
15 Selectivity
16 Spurious response due to r.f. non-linearity
17 Rejection of fundamental and harmonics of the sub-
carrier (systems with baseband sub-carriers)
18 Rejection of unwanted signals from the video channel
19 Variation of the rejection of unwanted signals from
the video channel with time
20 Rejection of modulating signals in the band 14 kHz
to 25 kHz approximately (used as supervising signals
by same broadcasting authorities)
