Abstract

A receiver includes a tuner and a circuit. The tuner receives an indication of a radio frequency signal from an antenna feedline in response to the radio frequency signal being provided to the antenna feedline by an amplifier. The circuit transmits a control signal to the antenna feedline to control a gain of the amplifier in response to a strength of the radio frequency signal.
