Recent issues of Radio-Electronics magazine contain plans for, and a
technical description of an MTS decoder.  Briefly, the MTS system is
similar in many respects to the FM stereo-subcarrier system, but there
are some substantial differences (the subcarrier frequency offset is
different, there's a second subcarrier for the "second audio program",
and the subcarrier is companded using a variation of the dbx system).
Simply using an FM-tuner decoder chip won't work.
