A disadvantage of variometers is that although the inductance can be varied the loss resistance of the coils remains the same. That means that when adjusted near minimum inductance  Q = X/r  can become very low. 
In practice  the effect is diluted by the earth resistance which in most cases is considerably larger than the coil resistances.
