Abstract
In a tuner unit, a metal shielding plate standing upright on a circuit board is provided between circuit blocks formed on the circuit board so as to electrically shield the circuit blocks from each other. A metal bridge that connects the shielding plate and a frame is provided between some circuit blocks and at a distance from the circuit board so that an electrical component can be mounted on a portion of the circuit board opposing the bridge. This makes it possible to reduce the mounting space for the electrical component and to achieve a small tuner unit.
