A suburban listener, desiring to improve reception of semi-local stations, might be well served by a broader tuning, less critical loop, that may provide a bit of improvement on several stations, perhaps without re-tuning when the station is changed.

Well, I'm 20-75 miles from any local stations and 150 or more from the ones I want to hear, so would spacing the turns slightly work better for me?
