  • Patent number: 6188878
    Abstract: An FM receiver for receiving a text-based multiplex broadcast includes a decoder for taking out text-based program data from a multiplexed signal received at a receiver circuit and a controller having first and second memory areas. Data taken out by the decoder is alternately written to the first and second memory areas each time a power supply is turned on. When the power supply is turned on, the controller reads out data from one of the first and second memory areas that is carrying out writing of the data, and displays a text-based program at a display element with this read-out data. The memory area carrying out the reading of data is then alternately changed over between the first and second memory areas upon the operation of a prescribed key.
