A gain deviation is leveled in the same band by using a varactor diode having
the
same characteristics as that used in an input tuning circuit for coupling the input
tuning circuit and a high frequency amplifier The input tuning circuit has a tuning
varactor diode whose tuning frequency varies with a tuning voltage applied to the
cathode of the tuning varactor diode, a high-frequency amplifier is provided in
a stage subsequent to the input tuning circuit, and a coupling varactor diode for
coupling the input tuning circuit to the high-frequency amplifier, in which the
cathode of the coupling varactor diode and that of the tuning varactor diode are
connected with each other and a bias voltage higher than the voltage at the anode
of the tuning varactor diode and lower than the lowest voltage of the tuning voltage
is applied to the anode of the coupling varactor diode.
