I haven't kept up with developments. How is this blending accomplished?
Maybe you could point me toward someone's FM demodulator chip.


I believe the troublesome L-R signal is AGC controlled. Strong signal
reception gets full L-R which gets reduced with decreasing signal strength,
while the L+R signal remains at full strength with all signal levels.

Anyway, here's one chip:

I see page 7 has a curve showing 0 to just over 50 dB of separation.

The chip was released back in 1987, interesting.
