          Appeal No. 2001-0609                                                        
          Application No. 08/903,484                                                  


          for piecing together the relied upon prior art.  In that                    
          regard, we are in general agreement with appellants' arguments              
          as presented in their brief at page 3.  Thus, we will not                   
          sustain the examiner's rejection of claim 16 under 35 U.S.C. §              
          103(a) as being unpatentable over Figure 1A of the present                  
          application taken in view of Dougherty '358.                                









          In accordance with the foregoing, the decision of the                       
          examiner rejecting claim 16 of the present application under                
          35 U.S.C. § 103(a) is reversed.                                             


                                      REVERSED

                         Administrative Patent Judge   )                              
                                                       )                              
                                          6
