The present invention provides a means for improving the sensitivity and selectivity of a car radio receiver. The variable inductance LC resonant circuit comprises: a amplifier 53 having enough high input impedance and enough low output impedance, a inductive element 51 connected a terminal to the input of said amplifier 53 and the other terminal to the output terminal of said amplifier 53, and a capacitive element 52 connected a terminal to the input terminal of said amplifier 53 and the other terminal to the ground. The proposed technique alters the parallel resonant frequency by varying an equivalent inductance 51, 53 seen from the condenser 52 side, wherein the equivalent inductance 51, 53 varies associated with the gain of said amplifier depending on the frequency control voltage from the PLL synthesizer to the terminal 54.
