[Lowfer] Loop antenna question

[stanw1le at verizon.net]

Would be an interesting experiment, comparing the 2 configurations simultaneously.One minor concern may be the self resonance due to winding to winding capacitance.
I will be monitoring for other's suggestions.

For a given length of wire, would a single turn loop pick up more signal than
a multiple turn loop?  The single turn loop would have a larger capture area,
so it should produce better results than if the same length of wire was used
in a multi-turn loop.  However, there may be other factors that I’m not aware
of, so I’m asking for your comments and suggestions.
