The problem is that the resistance varies with the gauge of the wire. The smaller the ga the higher the resistance per foot so the ohms measurement doesn't mean much unless you know the ga. Then there is the Q of the coil/loop. The higher the Q the better in this case. The higher the Q the better the rf selectivity which saves the IF from filtering out other garbage.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
