US 2002/0163423 A1 · RADIO COMMUNICATION APPARATUS CAPABLE OF DISPLAYING SUBSTITUTE MESSAGES

Abstract

In a radio communication apparatus, on the receipt of a radio signal via an antenna, an address number included in the radio signal is compared with an address number stored in the apparatus beforehand. If the two address numbers compare equal, a message processing section 4 converts a message signal following the address number to characters to be displayed and thereby produces message data. The message data are written to a message storage 7. Further, the message data are compared with an original message stored in a replacement message information storage 5 beforehand. If the message data includes the original message, then a portion of the message data corresponding to the original message is replaced with a substitute message. The replaced message data appear on a display 8. At the same time, an alert section 9 alerts the user of the apparatus to the call incoming.
