Abstract

A receiving antenna system for vehicles that eliminates interference in receiving signals. The interference detector is disposed within the receiver and generates and transmits an indicating signal, or a signal derived therefrom. Such signal can be formed in several different ways, and in the site of the antenna installation, it can be converted into a switching signal that only effects the switching condition in the antenna installation having a controllable switching circuit.
