Question on Antenna Voltage

:
Andy asks
When one uses the equations for a loop antenna to determine what
voltage will be developed at the antenna terminals due to a passing
signal,
is the calculated voltage with the antenna terminated in an open
circuit,
or a resistance equal to the characteristic impedance of the antenna,
or some other load ?
I haven't seen any of the texts state specifically whether the
voltage
is open circuit or otherwise....
The article at
http://www.vk1od.net/antenna/SmallUn...Loop/index.htm
should
answer your question.
