In-Door Horizontal [Flat] Loop Antenna - - - No Grounding Required
I agree on the choke, but it seems to me the right angle coax would be
an antenna, but not aimed with the rest of the loop. For instance, a
horizontal loop connected to vertical coax would fit your description,
but I would still say the coax unbalanced the loop.
FWIW, I get better results with vertical loops than horizontal.

Please Educate me as to Why the Loop Antenna
would be Un-Balance without using a Balun ?

Any time you connect a transmission line directly to a antenna the coax
shield can affect the antenna unless you decouple it.
You can:
1. Run the coax at a right angle from the antenna elements.
2. Use a choke of some type on the coax.
Otherwise the coax shield become part of the antenna.
