73 to All....
I am having to order the cable that is the Main Loop.
What is the correct diameter to tune for 7-28MHz?
Any information is appreciated!

Hi Dale, should this antenna be designed for portable or base? If portable I recommend 1m in diameter. It is 3,14m long cable. If base so use more - max.1/10 of the 40m long wave.

Thank you Paul! I should have all the parts soon to start building. The capacitors were the hardest part to find. The one I will be using is rated for 650 volts RMS. I hope that will be enough for 20 Watts Maximum Output Power.
Best Regards,

Hello Dale. Yes this is the same cap as mine just with more capacity. This one is good if you will use max.power 15-20W. Connect it as split stator and it will work fine ;-) 73
