An antenna arrangement is disclosed for personal radio transceivers in which a main antenna (1) extends out from the housing (3) of the transceiver excited by the high frequency connector thereof and an auxiliary antenna (4) is coupled to the cold terminal of the connector to form a counterweight to the main antenna (1). Both the main and auxiliary antennas (1, 4) are resonant and shorter than the quarterwave-length, whereby the housing (3) gets to a potential minimum and the effects of the close presence of the human body on the radiational properties will be reduced.
