I've used a variety of loops, from a small rotatable coax diamond to my present receiving antenna, a large 14 x 29 ft flag.
It is more useful to think of these antennas as providing directivity, not gain. What's important is a relative improvement in signal to noise ratio. It is not unusual to have improved copy on the desired signal while the loop is pointed at other than a dead on heading.
