Television tuning systems and methods employing use of ghost cancellation and antenna directionality control to produce a ghost-free television signal. The invention employs use of a antenna whose directionality can be changed to change reception quality of a received television signal, and a baseband ghost cancellation unit which can perform baseband ghost cancellation. In a first embodiment of the invention, the directionality of the antenna is changed so that a television signal of sufficient reception quality is received from which a ghost-free television signal can be produced therefrom by the baseband ghost cancellation unit. A second embodiment of the invention further employs use of a tuner, and involves controlling the directionality of the antenna and the tuning frequency of the tuner so that a tuned television signal is produced which is properly tuned and of sufficient quality that a properly tuned ghost-free television signal can be produced therefrom by the baseband ghost cancellation unit. Both of the first and second embodiments can be used to obtain the antenna directionality setting and ghost cancellation coefficients which will produce a ghost-free television signal, and the tuning frequency setting which in combination with the antenna directionality setting and ghost cancellation coefficients will produce a properly tuned ghost-free television signal. A third embodiment of the invention further employs use of a storage device for storing the antenna directionality setting, (tuning frequency setting) and possibly, the ghost cancellation coefficients which enable production of a (properly tuned) ghost-free television signal.
