Appeal No. 1998-1181
Application No. 08/442,883
Appellants argue that Krolopp does not teach an10
automatically selecting method or apparatus as Krolopp
provides that the user is prompted if the received system11
identification code matches an identification code stored in
the radiotelephone's memory. Appellants further note
Krollop's statement “In the preferred embodiment, the user12
punches a button in the radiotelephone's keypad to make the
selection.” (Appellants' emphasis). Appellants also assert
that Krollop's use of the word "selecting" refers to the 13
action of actually designating a particular system for use.
Appellants also argue that the Examiner erred in stating14
that claims 55-56 lack the limitation of "means for
automatically selecting a carrier frequency as a home carrier"
(Examiner's emphasis). Appellants rely on the earlier
recitation of the word "selecting" in the preamble of claim 55
