Abstract:
A broadcast reception device includes a plurality of reception units that receive a broadcast signal and a control unit that causes one of the reception units to select a designated broadcast station (D-station) and causes another one of the reception units to search for a relay or affiliate station (R/A-station) corresponding to the designated broadcast station. When a reception sensitivity for the D-station is less than a reference value and when a reception sensitivity for the R/A-station is equal to or more than the reference value, the control unit causes the R/A-station to be selected. When the reception sensitivity for the D-station is less than the reference value and when the reception sensitivity for the R/A-station is less than the reference value, the control unit causes the D-station to continue to be selected.

Claim (Index 6):
A broadcast reception method comprising:\n causing at least one of a plurality of reception units select a channel of a designated broadcast station designated by a user and causing at least another one of the plurality of reception units to search for a channel of a relay station or an affiliate station corresponding to the designated broadcast station; when a reception sensitivity for the designated broadcast station is less than a reference value and when a reception sensitivity for the relay station or the affiliate station identified by a search is equal to or more than the reference value, causing the channel of the relay station or the affiliate station to be selected and causing broadcast content received in the channel for the relay station or the affiliate station to be played back; and when the reception sensitivity for the designated broadcast station is less than the reference value and when the reception sensitivity for the relay station or the affiliate station identified by the search is less than the reference value, causing the designated broadcast station to continue to be selected.
