Abstract: A novel antenna arrangement enables the fully automated insertion of an antenna assembly in a communication device (100), such as a cellular radio telephone. A mounting bracket (112) for the antenna assembly is designed to stand in place to enable reflowing of solder to attach the mounting bracket to the circuit board. According to another aspect of the invention, the sleeve (130) and corresponding head (132) of the antenna assembly operatively couple to enable insertion of the sleeve into the mounting bracket, while preventing removal of the sleeve with the head. Preferably, the lower surface of the head is designed to enable the clockwise rotation of the sleeve, while preventing the counterclockwise rotation of the sleeve. Also, the sleeve is designed to receive a removal device to rotate the sleeve in the counterclockwise direction for removal.
