Reducing the cost and size of an FM radio receiver for receiving the North
American weather band is aimed. An intermediate-frequency bandpass filter
(IFBPF (80)) for limiting the band of a reception signal converted to an
intermediate signal is configured with a variable passband width W.sub.F.
W.sub.F is varied in accordance with reception conditions. When the user
selects to receive signals in the weather band, a microcomputer (54)
switches the tuning frequencies and sets W.sub.F to a lower limit of a
range variable by the IFBPF (80). Adjacent-channel interference can
thereby be suppressed during reception in the weather band, which has a
smaller channel step than do other bands. In this configuration, there is
no need to externally mount an expensive crystal filter to an IC for an
FM tuner.
