A flat coil should work fine as a capacitance hat.

I have thought about trying this. With a spiral or flat coil you have a hat
and a loading coil all rolled up in one. Winding spiral coils is not easy, and
the mechanics of mounting on my mobile antenna have kept me from trying, but I
may yet. What do you think Tom?
