Locked Impedance of a loop antenna


al_ka5jgv
 

Is there a nominal impedance or approximate impedance for a loop
antenna? For example, a dipole is considered 72-ohm, a bevarage 450-
ohm. What is a nominal loops Z?

I have a 4-1/2 foot diameter loop antenna with 12 turns paralled by a
capacitor for the antenna and one additional turn for the pickup coil.
The loop is for the 200 - 500kHz band. About how much is the impedance
of such an antenna? Thanks.
