"The unshielded loop will...respond to electrostatically induced noise."

While:

"The shielded loop , on the other hand,  is almost insensitive to 
electrostatically induced noise."

In other words, the shielded loop is NOT a good choice to DF the types of 
noise we are most often bothered by, while the un-shielded loop is 
specifically sensitive to such noise.

So, my use of my NM-20B, with its shielded loop, was counter-productive.
