Abstract
An antenna system includes a tubular cellular telephone antenna that is surrounded by a rubber sheath. A CB antenna is mounted above the tubular cellular telephone antenna. Each of an AM/FM, television, and marine wire antenna is wrapped around a separate portion of the rubber sheath such that these three antennas are substantially parallel to one another and are each substantially perpendicular to the tubular cellular telephone antenna.
Claims21
A three-way antenna system, comprising:
- a first, elongated antenna having an outer surface, for sending and receiving telephone signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 824 to 894 MHz;
- an insulator covering the outer surface of the first antenna;
- a second antenna and a third antenna selected from the group consisting of:
- a radio antenna wrapped around a portion of the insulator for receiving signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 540 to 1600 kHz and 88 to 108 MHz;
- a television antenna wrapped around a portion of the insulator for receiving signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 30 to 300 MHz;
- and
- a marine antenna wrapped around a portion of the insulator for receiving signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 3 to 10 MHz;
- and
- means for transmitting the electromagnetic signals received by the first, second and third antennas between the first, second and third antennas and first, second and third receivers corresponding to the first, second and third antennas, respectively.

A five-way antenna system, comprising:
- an antenna body having a hollow portion and a tip portion;
- a tubular cellular telephone antenna having an outer surface, for sending and receiving telephone signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 824 to 894 MHz, the telephone antenna being contained in the hollow portion of the antenna body;
- a rubber sheath covering the outer surface of the telephone antenna;
- a radio antenna wrapped around an upper portion of the rubber sheath for receiving signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 540 to 1600 kHz and 88 to 108 MHz;
- a television antenna wrapped around a middle portion of the rubber sheath for receiving signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 30 to 300 MHz;
- a marine antenna wrapped around a lower portion of the rubber sheath for receiving signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 3 to 10 MHz;
- a CB antenna mounted to the tip portion of the antenna body for transmitting and receiving signals with an electromagnetic frequency of 26 to 28 MHz;
- and
- means for transmitting the electromagnetic signals received by the antennas between the antennas and corresponding receivers.
