Abstract

The present invention is a cell phone holder and transmitter that is compact in size and is small and light in weight whereby it is capable of being clipped onto a holder attachment in a vehicle by a mounting clip and a gooseneck with affixed clip at the end. The holder of the cell phone itself also acts as the transmitter thereby minimizing the size and dimensions of the present invention. The present invention is capable of transmitting from an MP3 device, I-Pod or other media player. The present invention is also compatible with other devices utilizing a standard 3.5 mm audio output source. The present invention utilizes mounting surfaces composed of silicon rubber embedded in fluoride. Said combination of materials allows the formation of a secure seal for a cell phone while resting within the present invention and said material additionally allows a user to place and remove a cell phone of varying dimensions with minimum effort. A co-axial microphone wire cable of the present invention serves as a Frequency Modulation (FM) transmitter antenna. Said speaker and microphone wire cable antenna is composed of a copper alloy material to further its utility as an antenna. Said Transmitter sends signals to the FM band. Said FM band transmission is of a frequency at or between 88.1 and 88.9. Said present invention operates on less than 1 watt of output.
