Abstract
An electronic timepiece has a reception device; an input device; a detection device that detects a start reception operation of the input device and outputs a start reception signal; a manual reception controller that operates the receiver and executes a reception process if the start reception signal output from the detection device is received; an automatic reception controller that determines if an automatic reception condition is met, and operates the reception device to execute the reception process if the automatic reception condition is met; and a reception setter that enables or disables operation of the automatic reception controller. The reception setter enables operation of the automatic reception controller if the start reception signal output from the detection device is received if operation of the automatic reception controller is disabled.
