Abstract
A reception apparatus includes a plurality of reception circuits that receive transmission signals, a plurality of local oscillation circuits that respectively supply the plurality of reception circuits with local oscillation signals, and a control unit that controls tunings in the plurality of reception circuits. When at least one reception circuit among the plurality of reception circuits is not used to receive the transmission signals, the control unit searches for an interference wave using the unused reception circuit.
