Abstract
In a radio paging receiver in which a CPU (6) stores a received message in one of message areas of a message memory (8) as an unconfirmed message and in which an announcing section (11-18) carries out a call announcement in response to the received message, the CPU makes the announcing section announce an unconfirmed message full announcement instead of the call announcement when each message area is filled with the unconfirmed message and when an announcement stop instruction is not received from a keyboard (10) within a predetermined time interval from a time instant at which the call announcement is started. The unconfirmed message full announcement has an announcing pattern which is different from that of the call announcement. When the instruction is received within the predetermined time interval, the CPU makes the announcing section stop the call announcement and makes the message memory memorize the received message in the above-mentioned one of the message areas as a confirmed message instead of the unconfirmed message.
