While I have not looked at any loops yet, my results so far are consistent with Ken's comments.
There is a local guy that has done some really good work with small loops on the low bands that I am hoping to replicate in the future.

PS: Still plugging along with the 102" antenna. Match looks great and the amp seems happy to make 10 watts into the load. OK is well represented with some surprising reports.. only a matter of time before someone hears this thing via a pure skywave path.

I have tested small loops , medium size loops .
For a small antenna , The best is still a Marconi
even if it's a small T antenna.
I have tested a T that was only 26 ft vertical with
50 ft across the top.
With a loading coil at the base and 8 radials or
as many as you can put out .
