Abstract
A mobile transceiver () comprises several receivers () for receiving electrical or electromagnetic signals carrying audio signals and a radio transmitter () for transmitting radio signals carrying audio signals. The mobile transceiver () comprises a prioritizing module () for assigning priority values to audio signals received by the receivers (). The prioritizing module () is designed to assign priority values in accordance with priority values assigned to the receivers () that received the audio signal concerned and/or to signal identifiers contained in the received electrical or electromagnetic signals carrying the audio signal concerned. The mobile transceiver () makes it possible to receive several audio signals separately from different audio sources, to prioritize automatically the received audio signals, and to select automatically and transmit one of the several received audio signals to the user, thereby assisting the possibly hearing impaired user in differentiating audio signals from different audio sources.
