Huh!? According to the article on L. B. Cebik's web page, a
one-wavelength horizontally oriented, horizontally polarized loop
antenna has a nearly circular pattern.

Dale is obviously talking about a vertically oriented loop. And
a one wavelength horizontal loop is not a good omnidirectional antenna.
