Abstract
A selective calling receiver comprises two separate bands having an antenna circuit for tuning incorporated therein. The first band has a first antenna and tuning capacitors incorporated therein and stoppers formed and arrayed on the outer surface thereof. Predetermined points are provided to the first antenna, providing different effective antenna lengths, respectively. The respective stoppers are provided with electrodes which are connected to the predetermined points of the first antenna through the tuning capacitors, respectively. The second band has a second antenna and a hook. The hook can be engaged with a selected one of the stoppers of the first band depending on the user's wrist thickness. The hook comprises a conductor electrically connected to the second antenna. When engaged with a selected one of the stoppers, the hook brings into electrical contact with the corresponding electrode to form the antenna circuit.
