Abstract
A mobile terminal device receives and reproduces a broadcast program on air. At this moment, in the mobile terminal device, a reception quality measuring section measures the reception quality by measuring electric field intensity of the broadcast waves. A reception quality notifying section notifies the user of the measured reception quality in a form that is easily interpreted by the user. This allows the mobile terminal device to notify the user of whether the user can stably view the program.
