My reading of Baum's papers is that the so-called Moebius loop has
4 times the output impedance of a single turn loop and 1/4 of the
bandwidth of a single turn loop.  If the object is to get broadband
coverage, can someone tell me why a Moebius loop is supposed to
be better than a single turn loop?
