Abstract
Selection of a program in a DAB receiver is facilitated. There are provided a data table containing sets of a service ID and a time data indicating a broadcast time of that program in order of the time as well as a data table containing the service ID in order of receiving frequency of that program. When an operation for selecting a program is performed, it is checked whether or not a data coincident with a service ID of a program of the latest broadcast time among data of the data table is found in the data table . As a result of this check, if it is found, a program of that service ID is selected. As a result of the check, if it is not found, the same processing is thereafter repeated to select a program, with a service ID of a program of the next latest broadcast time among data of the data table
