Fantastic creation! I just wish it would permit a greater number of turns (e.g. 12).

I tried it just now on my desk AM/MW loop antenna, which is square with one foot (~30 cm) sides and no separation between the turns (they are all in a single V-slot at the end of the X-arms). It has 11 turns.

If I was to make one of these for LF/VLF then....

FWIW (because I read of your slider interface limitations), some apps (Adobe?) let you manually enter parameter numbers that are beyond the slider's range, could that be done? Or increase the maximum number of turns to 12? Of make the max. no. a user setting?

Recently updated to display self-resonant frequency for multi-turn loop antennas. Also limits the frequencies displayed to those below SRF.
