A receiver receives a multiplex broadcasting wave of a terrestrial wave
and a satellite wave and executes AGC. As for the terrestrial wave, only
a frequency band of the terrestrial wave is extracted by a filter for the
terrestrial wave, and the AGC on the terrestrial wave side is executed
through an AGC loop for the terrestrial wave. As for the satellite wave,
the frequency band including the terrestrial wave and the satellite wave
is extracted by the filter for the satellite wave, and the AGC is
executed based on the signal. As a result, the AGC on the satellite wave
side is affected by a receiving condition variation of the terrestrial
wave. By a frequency-analysis of the terrestrial wave signal, the
receiving condition of the terrestrial wave is analyzed. According to the
analyzed result, an AGC adjusting quantity on the satellite wave side is
determined and the AGC on the satellite wave side is adjusted by the
adjusting quantity. Thereby, the effects on the satellite wave side by
the receiving condition of the terrestrial wave signal may be reduced or
eliminated, and appropriate AGC can be executed to the satellite wave.
