In a channel selection device of the invention used in a digital/analog broadcasting
receiver, in instructing changing a channel, either one of the UP/DOWN key pair
or the RIGHT/LEFT key pair can be used to change a main channel while changing
the other pair to change a sub-channel. Thus, by using the keys distributed between
the main channel and the sub-channels, a correlation can be given between the key
operations and the channels' hierarchical construction to thereby facilitate the
changing and selection of the main channels and the sub-channels in the hierarchical
construction in digital/analog broadcasts.
