 DL>     I know that the Publick brodcasting network around the san

I live in the SF Bay area, and have, therefore, heard about the audio
descriptions on the stereo channel, but I have yet to hear a program
using them.  I believe, though, that if you do not have a stereo TV, you
_can_ receive the naration if you have a stereo VCR.

We got a stereo VCR not that long ago, so I will keep a look out for
programs with the audio descriptuion broadcasts and check this out. (My
TV is not stereo, so it should be a 'fair' test. Will let yous know what
I find.
