I have a memory of a MF loop aerial down in the darkest cellar of my memory that had a 500pF variable capacitor strapped across the loop, I presume to tune the loop a bit?
My radio knowledge is scrappy so sorry if I got a bit "muxed ip".
This Idea of a simple loop appeals to me as I like to listen to the local station on MW in the garage or shed and anything that helps me get it stronger appeals.
