[Antennas] Loop inside a loop TX antenna ??? - Revised (monoband configuration)

[Demetre Koumanakos]

Hi All,

I received a couple of replies in regards to loop inside loop antenna, 
and was suggested to me that what I'm looking for is the typical 
multiband loop. The loop inside a loop is usually used for multiband 
tuning, but what I had in mind was a monoband loop inside a loop, a 
configuration that whould maybe  "add" some performance to the single 
loop monoband antenna.

Any ideas ?
