The invention relates to a receiver in a radio system, comprising two or more receiving antennas (300A-300B) for receiving a spread spectrum signal containing user signals, means for locating (200A-200B) delay components of the user signal at different measurement moments, means for forming (304) a combined correlation value from at least two correlation values of a certain delay component, the two correlation values being formed from signals received via different receiving antennas (300A-300B), and the estimation means (310) being configured to use the combined correlation value to correct channel distortion. The invention also relates to a method of receiving a signal.
