Hmmm. *A "magnetic" loop antenna. *Must be some other types of loop
antennas as well. *Maybe there are also "electric" loop antennas.

Guess they left something out of all those antenna textbooks I have ;-)

Hello John,

When you cut the loop at two opposite positions, yes, you can make
your "electric" loop.

It will generate lots of E-field, you may need another coil for
matching, and it is probably less efficient then a short straight
dipole with massive capacitive disks to get larger I*delta(le)
product.
