The invention refers to a method for a receiver (1) having a signal path (3) incorporating a tuner (4), a frequency demodulator circuit (5) for supplying an analog stereo multiplex signal comprising a baseband stereo sum signal, a 19 kHz stereo pilot and a stereo difference signal, which is double sideband amplitude-modulated on a suppressed 38 kHz subcarrier, a sampler (6) for converting the analog stereo multiplex signal into a time discrete digital stereo multiplex signal and a stereo decoder (7) for decoding the time discrete digital stereo multiplex signal into a time-discrete digital stereo sum and a time discrete digital stereo difference signal. According to the invention the analog stereo multiplex signal is converted into a time discrete digital stereo multiplex signal and then the time discrete digital stereo multiplex signal is shifted over a frequency of 19 kHz to extract the pilot tone.
