Hi Ed,
Try this: http://www.lwca.org/library/articles/ywk/octoloop.htm
Mine has two turns of CAT-5 cable with the 16 conductors
connected in series and broadly resonated, 20KHz or so, with
a fixed cap. Tap at a turn or two feeds 75-ohm coax. Seems
to work well between 10 and 100 KHz without tuning, so you
can stick it on the roof with out a lot of drama. Signals
and noise levels are pretty high so you can get away with
this as long as the RX isn't particularly deaf.
