    Abstract: A carrying case for a pager including a pouch having first and second compartments. The first compartment is sized to receive the pager therein and the second compartment is provided for receiving other items such as a credit card, driver's license, money, etc. which the user may need. A shield is positioned between the first and second compartments for shielding any items within the second compartment from being damaged by and electromagnetic waves produced by the beeper.

A cover is provided for selectively covering the first and second compartments to thereby secure the beeper within said first compartment and whereby the beeper is fully operational when positioned within the first compartment and covered by the cover.
