A television signal transmitter for transmitting a conventional television signal as a main signal according to a VSB system, and in-phase modulating the main signal in a DSB region of the VSB region and multiplexing the main signal with a sub signal having an orthogonal modulation. The transmitter has a first inserting circuit (3, 4, 22) for inserting a reference signal into a first specific period within a vertical blanking period of the main signal, a second inserting circuit (13, 14, 22) for inserting a second reference signal into every other frame of the main signal in a second specific period of within a vertical blanking period of the main signal, a first interrupting circuit (22) for interrupting the transmission of the first reference signal to inspect for ghost images of the sub signal in the first specific period and its immediately preceding scanning period and a second interrupting circuit (22) for interrupting the transmission of the second reference signal to inspect for ghosts of the sub signal in the second specific period of frames in which the second reference signal is not inserted. <IMAGE> |
