| 1. A receiver comprising:
an input stage that receives and amplifies a broadcast signal including a digital broadcast signal and an analog broadcast
signal;
a digital signal processing stage that processes a received digital broadcast signal and outputs a first quality information
signal,
an analog signal processing stage that processes a received analog broadcast signal and outputs a second quality information
signal,
an evaluation unit that evaluates at least one of the first and second quality information signals and outputs a control signal
to the input stage, the digital signal processing stage and the analog signal processing stage; and
a broadband level detector that detects a level of the received broadcast signal and outputs a first automatic gain control
signal to the evaluation unit, where the first automatic gain control signal corresponds to the level of the received broadcast
signal.
