Abstract
A receiver includes a tuner that converts an FM radio broadcast signal into an intermediate frequency signal that has the same frequency as a sound intermediate frequency subcarrier signal when receiving the television broadcast signal and outputs the intermediate frequency signal when receiving the FM radio broadcast signal, a SAW filter passing only an intermediate frequency band of the output of the tuner, a video detector detecting a video signal containing a sound subcarrier signal when receiving the television broadcast signal and detecting a sound subcarrier signal when receiving the FM radio broadcast signal, a VIFAGC circuit making the video signal have a constant amplitude, and an AGC circuit making a sound subcarrier signal output from a band pass filter have a constant amplitude.
