I may need to re-read my articles about transmitting loops, but can't
remember why two #10 conductors in parallel are better than taking the same
wire and making it a 2-turn loop. Does the series resistance double while
the radiation resistance does not fall by half with a two turn loop?
Hmm... I guess the series resistance would quadruple. Maybe I answered my
own question?
Thanks!

wire feedline.
