The circuit arrangement comprises a tuner with a control amplifier and a
mixer connected downstream, and an automatic gain control. The automatic
gain control contains a weighting filter, which is connected to the
output of the mixer, upstream of an intermediate frequency filter, and
which supplies the control signal for the control amplifier of the tuner
via a detector. The weighting filter has, in particular, a passband,
which corresponds to the passband of the intermediate frequency filter
and at least partly encompasses at least one or two adjacent program
channels. As a result of this, the control amplifier is better tuned
under difficult reception conditions, since, by means of the weighting
filter, adjacent channels, relative to the passband of the intermediate
frequency filter, are also concomitantly included in the control signal.
