Your comments reinforce JB's suggestion to visit the ARRL Antenna
Book, and perhaps the ARRL Handbook, and maybe research additional
books on wire antennas. There are several web sites devoted to this
type of antenna. One operator who who regularly checks into my Brand
X radio owner's net has a lovely 80m loop and he has done a lot of
research on that type of antenna. It seems worthy of serious study,
and surely there is more to it than one might learn from a few brief,
well said answers from the helpful volunteers on this list. From
Peter's comments, it appears manifest getting it right could have
significant benefits, and getting it wrong could present serious
problems.
Here's a good start, the 1974 version available for free, legally to
read online or download:
