That magnetic loop on other bands

The magnetic loop
antenna
As you may remember, I have been experimenting with my tiny magnetic loop antenna on the shack windowsill. It is at most about 50cm diameter and the wire is not very thick. To my amazement, I am getting spots with about 10W on 20m FT8. It seems to match on most bands above 20m. If stuck for a "proper" antenna, I can always try this!
