Abstract: An apparatus to increase a radio receiver's immunity to radio frequency interference, the radio receiver receiving a signal, the apparatus comprising: a switch (1105) coupled to the received signal, the switch (1105) having an open position and a closed position; a resistance (1101), a first end of the resistance (1101) being coupled to the closed position of the switch (1105) and a second end of the resistance (1101) being coupled to a ground potential; an amplifier (1101) having an input coupled to the open position of the switch (1105), for generating an amplified received signal at an output; a controller coupled to the switch (1105), for switching the switch (1105) to the closed position in response to the received signal exceeding a predetermined power level, said received signal conducting through said switch (1105) and said resistance (1101) to ground potential when said switch (1105) is in said closed position; and said resistance (1101) creating an impedance mismatch at the input to said amplifier (1110) when said switch (1105) is in closed position, thereby reducing the gain contributed by said amplifier (1110).
