Abstract
Abstract An auxiliary frame to be detachably fastened inside a hand-held telephone for mounting at least some of the components of the hand telephone, has a lower edge with separate indentations for receiving power supply contacts and for securing them between the auxiliary frame and the attachment base of the hand-held telephone, e.g., a circuit board. Another indentation is provided at the lower edge for receiving the signal conductor of the external antenna of the telephone and for securing the signal conductor between the auxiliary frame and the attachment base. The upper surface of the auxiliary frame is designated for supporting the internal disc antenna of the telephone, which antenna is secured to the upper surface in abutting relationship therewith.
