ABSTRACT:
An antenna ball identification system comprising first and second outer shells, with each shell having a hollow interior and a substantially planar perimeter edge. Each shell has an interior protrusion disposed inwardly from the perimeter edge which is structured to have a substantially hour glass shaped cavity, with each cavity extending out into the outer perimeter edge. The first shell is hingedly attached to the second shell such that the respective perimeter edges abut each other to form a structure having a substantially solid outer surface. The interior protrusions are positioned such that the cavities are positioned next to each other when the first and second shells are closed, with the cavities forming a hollow receptacle having a neck and extending inwardly from an opening formed by the cavities in the exterior of the structure. The receptacle receives a portion of the antenna rod such that the neck is positioned between the bulbous end of the antenna and the opening such that the structure is engaged to the antenna. A connection structure engages the first shell to the second shell such that the shells are held in a closed position, with the connection structure being integral to the outer shells.
