Abstract
A portable communication device and antenna device with robust rotational attachment is provided. The antenna device comprises: a base, the base being electrically conducting; an insulating core extending from the base; a clip attached to the base, the clip being electrically conducting, the clip and the base configured to cooperate such that: the base frictionally retains the clip; and the clip at least partially rotates around the base while making electrical contact thereto; and an antenna element extending from the clip along the insulating core, the antenna element shaped to at least partially rotate around the insulating core as the clip rotates at least partially around the base.
