A radio broadcast receiver is provided which reduces the degradation in
quality of diversity-received signals. When a difference in level between
a reception signal of a main antenna and a reception signal of a sub
antenna is less than a predetermined threshold value, and when a
difference in phase between the reception signal of the main antenna and
the reception signal of the sub antenna exceeds another predetermined
threshold value, a combination ratio of a combiner for combining outputs
of a main tuner and of a sub tuner is set to 1:1, where in-phase
combination type diversity is carried out. In other cases, the
combination ratio of the combiner is switched between 1:0 and 0:1
depending on the occurrence of a multipath, where selection diversity is
carried out.
