OK I will, I did make a test one out of 1/4" soft copper tubing and it loaded up very well with a 1:1 swr on any of the bands but my varable cap was not big enough to put any power to it.

You can Google "Magnetic Loop antennas" and find lots of info about them. My objectives are strong, portable, easy to use be able to handle 100 watts.
