A Small Loop Antenna for Receive Only (2)

The antenna with VC sections C1 and C2 in parallel is tunable between 4.030MHz and 9.860MHz as is expected from the following tables.

Measured capacitance of each section of the VC
       min       center	     max
----------------------------------
c1  148.4pF      62.6pF    22.0pF
c2  150.3pF      65.9pF    23.5pF
c3   40.7pF      27.8pF    19.9pF
c4   40.4pF      26.9pF    19.8pF
with L=5.1uH, the capacitance should be:
 3.5MHz   7MHz  10MHz  14MHz  18MHz  21MHz  25MHz  28MHz
-------------------------------------------------------
  405pF  101pF   50pF  25pF   15pF    11pF    8pF    6pF
