Here's an interesting loop antenna on eBay:

Looks like this guy (W1VLF) is in business making them.

Anyone have one already, or know anything about him?

You find two of the little tuners and I'll build the antennas.

What are the standard tuning capacitors for a MW loop? About 365 pf?

Adjustable caps? They're everywhere.

You can get them out of old transistor radios.

Yeah, little cruddy ones. Big news - the metal frame variables are easily
had and for cheap. Any reports of their demise is highly exagerrated. Try
Antique Electronic Supply or Fair Radio, for starters.

Little cruddy ones? They are the right size for many different QRP
applications.

18 to 400pF is a good value to shoot for, with a 240uH loop.

It doesn't look like anything I would want to buy, unless I wanted
something to match an antique radio, and even then, I can make a better
looking one. Note the chipping at the top and the amateurish way the tuning
cap is mounted.
