While the algebra to the solution is a bit long, here is a simpler network
that is also more realistic. It indeed points to the affect of resistance loss
modification of the resonance condition. The algebra is attached.
A fun experiment is to place a high Q tuned network on the vna and then foul
up the L with some R... Does it confirm???
I guess that I'm doing something wrong here, but LTSpice does not confirm the math :)
Just to make it very simple, I did C=10nF, L=10nH (so C/L=1), then varied RL as 1u 10m 100m 500m ohm. As expected, resonant dip becomes less prominent as R increases, but there is no "significant" change in resonant frequency as the math would suggest.
For RL=0.5 ohm, the SQRT(1-C/L*RL^2) = SQRT(0.75)=0.5625 suggests that resonant freq should shift to 56% of the "ideal" res freq, but LTSpice shows just a very minor shift of 1%
