The broadcast receiver (10) includes a DAB decoder (13) for decoding a received signal into DAB data including an EId code, an SId code, and an LSN code, and a controller (21) for producing and storing a network management database (30) and a linkage management database (40) in accordance with the encoded DAB data and also for, if degradation occurs in a receiving condition of a current broadcast program being received, commanding a DAB front end (12) to seek and receive a broadcast program having the same content as that of the current broadcast program in accordance with the EId code, a set of the EId code and the SId code, or a set of the EId code, the SId code and the LSN code, depending upon the status of the obtained DAB data. <IMAGE>
