Assume you gave a loop with a radiation resistance of 1 milli-Ohm and a

I hope that is just an example. If you really have a transmitting loop with a
series
R of 5 ohms you are wasting your time. Mine has a dc resistance of around 0.1
ohms,
and an effective series resistance once earth coupling losses and skin effect
are
taken into account of 0.65 ohms. I notice this series resistance figure was not
given in G3KEV's recent mail, it is by far the most important characteristic of
a
transmitting loop.
See my website where all these things are explained.
