Abstract
Multiplex broadcast receiving method and receiver which can easily update the preset contents of classification information, such as a program type, in an RDS broadcasting. The RDS receiver is constituted by a memory control section for storing the classification information (PTY code) demodulated from RDS broadcast waves which are being received into a PTY memory; the PTY memory for storing the classification information; and a station selecting section for selecting a station of the multiplex broadcast waves regarding the classification information by reading out the classification information from the PTY memory. This enables the use of the classification information of the broadcasting station being received as it is, so that the user can store the favorite program type by a simple operation.
