Abstract

Provided is a radio receiver for selective calling that improves the efficiency of a battery saving function and that can reduce the possibility that an incorrect time will be displayed. According to the radio receiver for selective calling of the present invention, when a controller receives input time information from a reception section, it compares the time indicated by the time information and time indicated by a clock. When the two times match, for a subsequent specified period of time the controller does not turn on the reception section, even at the time of transmission of time information. When the times do not match, the clock is adjusted to reflect the time indicated by the time information.
