The invention relates to a radio apparatus (95), particularly for use in mobile telephony, which allows for a presettable optimal adjustment of signal reception. Said radio apparatus (95) comprises a receiver element (1) and an evaluation unit (5), which unit adjusts the sensitivity and/or noise immunity of the receiver element (1) in accordance with a presettable signal reception quality and actual signal reception. The evaluation unit (5) increases the sensitivity and/or noise immunity of the receiver element (1) in case of faulty signal reception and lowers its sensitivity and/or noise immunity if signal reception has been fault-free for a predetermined period.
