When he's measuring towards the capacitor, won't the presence of his
hand be causing the loop to de-tune - hence less current?



Yes. But, is it measurable?


Being a high-Q circuit, I would think that a small amount of additional
C would cause considerable de-tuning.


Wouldn't that also give less voltage? That didn't seem to go down any.
