Claim:
1. An apparatus comprising: a first ground member; a second ground member extending from the first ground member and configured to extend an electrical length of the first ground member to a first electrical length, wherein the second ground member comprises a feed point for an antenna configured to at least partially overlay the second ground member and to operate in a first frequency band, wherein the feed point is coupled to radio circuitry via the first ground member and the second ground member, the feed point being configured to receive a signal in the first frequency band; and a third ground member configured to extend an electrical length of the first ground member to a second electrical length, wherein the third ground member comprises a further feed point for a further antenna configured to operate in a further frequency band, different to the first frequency band, wherein the further feed point is configured to receive a signal in the further frequency band, wherein the second ground member is configured to match a resonant frequency of the first electrical length with the operational frequency band of the antenna, and wherein the third ground member is configured to match a resonant frequency of the second electrical length with the operational frequency band of the further antenna.
