Abstract

PURPOSE:To reject the reception of a weak television signal whose reception is not desired by providing a reception signal level setting circuit and a discrimination circuit for the television receiver. CONSTITUTION:A received television signal is converted into an IF signal by a tuner 1. The converted signal enters a video signal intermediate frequency amplifier detector circuit 3 via a SAW filter 2. A video signal detector circuit 5 and an AFC circuit 6 respectively provide a detected video signal output and an AFC output. Then a video signal detector circuit 9 provides an output of a signal representing the discrimination of the video signal and the AFC circuit 6 provides an output to a channel selection circuit 10. Furthermore, the channel selection circuit 10 receives each of IF.AGC and RF.AGC voltages outputted from an AGC circuit 7 that detects an input electric field strength and converts it into a voltage and the circuit 10 discriminates whether or not a level set by a reception signal level setting circuit 12 is a signal level set by a reception signal discrimination circuit 13 or over to select whether or not a selected channel received by itself it to be stored in a memory 11.
