    Abstract: A computing device can include a first component, a second component, and a hinge rotatably coupling the first component and the second component. The second component is rotatable about the hinge between a closed position and an open position in relation to the first component. The computing device includes an antenna disposed at the second component, and a flexible conductive member disposed within the hinge. The flexible conductive member has a first end fixedly connected to the first component and a second end. The second end of the flexible conductive member conductively contacts the antenna in the open position and does not conductively contact the antenna in the closed position.
