Sean,
Years ago I made a loop antenna from a design in Electronics Australia which used about a metre of 15 core flat computer cable, I think, fixed to a support made from a strip of Formica bent into a circle. The ends of the ribbon cable cores were joined end of core1 to start of core 2 etc giving a flat coil of 15 metres, this was then tuned by an air gap tuning capacitor. The whole shebang could be rotated aroung a vertical axis to give good directionality.
Worked well. I still have the article somewhere in one of six cartons of EA and Radio & Hobbies down under the house. The thing itself is probably still there as well.
Cheers
Graeme
