As the name suggest, a receiving device receives data that is transmitted by a sending device. Your wireless router and network access points are both senders and receivers. A receive-only device is one that receives but does not transmit. An RF receiver is an example of a receive-only device. E.g., a Freeview receiver can receive digital television transmissions but it does not transmit. A receiver is obviously not a computer in the traditional sense, but it does have microprocessors, memory and is re-programmable through firmware upgrades. It's primary purpose is to decode the transmissions it receives so, by any definition of the word, it is a computer.
