Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.
This manual is immaculate in it's accuracy. Everything is written very clearly and easy to understand. Written by a professional who wants to convey a clear and easy to understand message!!
This Manual (as downloaded) is both informative and comprehensive and has proved to be extremely useful. thoroughly recommended.

Rule on Digital Copying
The digital audio equipment exchange audio signals in the digital forms through digital input/output jacks, and include the CD (Compact Disc) player, MD (Mini Disc) recorder and DAT (Digital Audio Tape) recorder. The digital audio equipment allows digital copy of signals with little deterioration of music signals. This has made it necessary to have a copy restriction rule for protecting the copyright, and the SCMS has been established as a result.

SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)
With a view to protecting the copyright, the SCMS restricts the number of generations permitted for copying of signals in the digital form between digital audio equipment to only one generation.
1st generation
2nd generation
Caution
Because of this rule, the MD obtained by recording a CD on the MD recorder cannot be copied in the digital form on other digital equipment.
