I saved the link to the calculator and loop antenna page. Outstanding!

It seems to me that you could use switches not only for including additional gangs but to also include (or delete) additional windings on your antenna. This would allow you to increase, narrow, or completely change the bandwidth that you intend to recieve.

I like DXing shortwave stations. How well would these loop antennas work for them? In my former life antenna polarization was always a consideration in addition to several other factors. But we transmitted and recieved, and the power available for transmitting from a team in the field was only in the vicinity of 20 watts.
