          Appeal No. 96-1663                                                          
          Application 08/046,240                                                      



          antenna and a matching leg are configured mechanically and                  
          electrically in one piece of a homogeneous material.  Upon a                
          careful review of Scharlau, Watts and Kuecken, we find that                 
          neither of these references teaches nor suggests the above                  
          limitations as recited in Appellant's claims, and thereby we                
          will not sustain  the Examiner rejection of claims 2 through                
          6, 8 through 25.                                                            
                         In view of the foregoing, the decision of the                
          Examiner rejecting claims 1 through 6 and 8 through 25 is                   
          reversed.
