1. A method for preventing saturation of a radio frequency receiver having a first bandwidth comprising the steps of:

  • receiving an input communication signal from within said first bandwidth through a first receiving path;

    measuring a noise level from within said first bandwidth through a second receiving path while coincidentally receiving said input communication signal through said first receiving path;

    comparing said noise level of said second path to a first predetermined noise level; and

    adjusting said first bandwidth to a second bandwidth which is greater than said first bandwidth in response to said comparing step determining that said noise level is greater than said first predetermined noise level.
