WA8LMF, I am going to try building your 30M mag loop antenna. On your website the design is a bit different; the RG-8 center conductor + dielectric is soldered to the copper tubing. It appears the design posted here, the RG-8 center conductor + dielectric is NOT soldered to the copper tubing. I don't understand antenna design well enough to determine how this tuning capacitor is working in each design, would you please explain this aspect of each design? Just want to be sure that I build it correctly. How much capacitance is needed for the design posted here? Thanks!
