As a result, fed with a random length of 450ohm window line it tunes up fine on 40M, as well as 20M (where it's proven quite effective for DX work) and 15M (where I havn't given it a chance to demonstrate its effectiveness or lack thereof). 73, Ross AJ4LL My 160M loop is tuned a bit lower than the simulation, it’s 543′ overall, and tunes at more like 3.65MHz.
