A telephone station set has subscriber-interface elements associated with rotatable panel (11). Rotatable panel (11) is adapted to serve as a sunshade visor in an automobile. In panel (11), exterior cavity (14) readily accommodates handset (16) in either of two hangup positions. Handset (16) is compact and nonsymmetrical while the interior of cavity (14) completely contains the handset in either of the hangup positions. This arrangement provides the convenience of one handed operation by either hand of an operator. Coiled handset cord (27) emerges from a centrally located port (28) to provide the electrical connection compatible with this convenient operation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The invention utilizes a rotatable panel member having a recess or an interior cavity with a centrally located protruding portion and lateral portions either of which may accept the larger end portion of a handset and completely contain same so that the handset may be placed therein or removed therefrom with respect to either of two different positions for use by either hand of an operator.
A handset cord emerges from a centrally located port to the side of the cavity to provide an arrangement compatible with the dual positioning of the handset.
The handset cord is a coiled cord and an interior longitudinal cavity communicates with the port to provide a reservoir for the handset cord.
The invention including its features, advantages and further objects, will be fully understood from a reading of the description to follow of an illustrative embodiment.
