A wireless communication device ( 100, 400 ) that can include a first electrically conductive structural member ( 102 ), a second electrically conductive structural member ( 104 ), and at least a first electrical conductor ( 118 ) that electrically connects a first portion ( 120 ) of the first structural member to the second structural member. A distance between the first portion and a second portion ( 122 ) of the first structural member can be selected to present a desired input impedance for an RF signal applied at the second portion of the first structural member. The distance can be approximately one-quarter of a wavelength of the RF signal or an odd multiple of the one-quarter wavelength. In another arrangement, the distance can be approximately one-half of a wavelength of the RF signal or a multiple of the one-half wavelength.
