Default Shielded loop operation

G'day all,

I am trying to work through the magical claims that are made of shielded
loops. My interest in mainly their use for field strength measurement,
but understanding them in a general sense is the place to start.

I have not found a detailed description of operation in my text books.
The ARRL does contain information, but it is inconsistent and IMHO
sometimes just plain wrong.

I have drafted an article with a proposed explanation of the operation
of a small single turn untuned shielded receiving loop. The article is at
http://www.vk1od.net/shieldedloop/index.htm .

Am I on the wrong tram?

Comments appreciated.

Owen
