Television receiver with a dual tuner system
First Claim
1. A television receiver comprising:
- first and second tuners able to receive signals in a predetermined frequency band, respectively;
displaying means able to simultaneously display the signals received by said first and second tuners;
key inputting means able to generate a first indicating signal for simultaneously displaying the signals received by said first and second tuners and a second indicating signal for displaying only the signal received by said first tuner; and
control means for controlling said first and second tuners in response to said first and second indicating signals, the control means setting frequencies received by said first and second tuners within said frequency band when said first indicating signal is generated, and said control means setting a frequency received by said first tuner within said frequency band and setting a frequency received by said second tuner outside said frequency band when said second indicating signal is generated.

Abstract
A television receiver having first and second tuners which can receive the same frequency band and display multiple-surfaces includes key inputting means for indicating that the display of a second tuner picture in a plurality of tuners is on or off and channel selection controlling means for making the second tuner an ordinary selected condition when the key inputting means indicates that the display of the second tuner picture is on and fixing the second tuner'"'"'s local oscillation frequency so as to set a frequency received by the second tuner outside a receivable frequency band when the key inputting means indicates that the display of the second tuner picture is off. Thereby, mutual beat interference between the plurality of tuners is eliminated.

2. A television receiver comprising:
-
first and second tuners being able to receive signals in a predetermined frequency band, respectively; displaying means able to simultaneously display the signals received by said first and second tuners; key inputting means able to generate a first indicating signal for simultaneously displaying the signals received by said first and second tuners and a second indicating signal for displaying only the signal received by said first tuner; and control means for controlling local oscillation frequencies of said first and second tuners in response to said first and second indicating signals and setting frequencies received by said first and second tuners, said control means for setting frequencies received by said first and second tuners within said frequency band when said first indicating signal is generated, and setting a frequency received by said first tuner within said frequency band and setting a frequency received by said second tuner outside said frequency band when said second indicating signal is generated. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4)

5. A television receiver comprising:
-
first and second tuners able to receive signals in a predetermined frequency band, respectively; key inputting means for indicating each channel received by said first and second tuners and able to indicate whether a signal received from said second tuner is displayed or not; first and second detecting means for detecting video signals output from said first and second tuners; first processing means for processing a detecting output from said first detecting means to produce a first signal; signal producing means for producing a second signal compressed by processing a detecting output from said second detecting means; switching means for selectively outputting either said first signal only or a signal in which said second signal is superimposed onto said first signal, by selectively switching said first signal from said first processing means and said second signal from said signal producing means; video displaying means for displaying an output signal from said switching means; and channel selection controlling means for controlling a channel selection by controlling local oscillation frequencies for said first and second tuners and selectively switching said switching means, said channel selection controlling means setting a frequency received by said second tuner within said frequency band when said key inputting means indicates a signal being displayed from said second tuner and controlling said switching means so as to output said signal superimposing said second signal onto said first signal by selectively switching said switching means, said channel selection controlling means controlling said switching means so as to select only a first signal based on an output from said first tuner and fixing said second tuner'"'"'s local oscillation frequency at a predetermined frequency so as to set a frequency received by said second tuner outside said frequency band when said key inputting means indicating that display of the signal from said second tuner is not needed. - View Dependent Claims (6)
