AM Loop Antenna from PVC Pipe

REUPLOAD - Sorry folks, but YouTube decided to fill all the blank spaces with static in the last go-round.  Call me picky, but I just couldn't stand it so here's a second go.  

If you had commented on the 1st upload - THANKS!  I wish there was a way to preserve that kind of thing here.

I built a loop antenna designed to boost the reception of AM broadcast radio.   It's simple construction, requiring only some PVC pipe, speaker wire, and a variable capacitor scrounged from an old radio.

The results are pretty good, even through the weather decided not to cooperate on filming day.

Here's the link to the on-line loop calculation I used:
