Dear Dexter, your question has not yet been answered here: No, the complete antenna system is also damped by the ground loss resistance which usually is much higher than the coil series loss resistan
Can the -3db bandwidth measurement of the complete antenna system be used to determine the Q of the coil? Dexter If you use a larger capacitance resonance will naturally be at a lower frequency so yo
If you use a larger capacitance resonance will naturally be at a lower frequency so you will be measuring the Q there instead. Selectivity will be higher, but when the bandwidth at the 3dB points is
