This video from Ben G0CWT is a fascinating exploration of how to resolve some of the tuning issues involved with small transmitting magnetic loop antennas. Ben says he has patented a way of feeding a small transmitting loop using a ferrite transformer to resolve problems surrounding current distribution, voltage distribution, radiation resistance, and impedance matching. If you're have difficulty in making your homebrew magnetic loop antenna "behave", this video will give you interesting, workable solutions.
