Does anyone have a reference to the technological basis for the alleged 
superiority of the "moebius loop" over other amplified, broadband 
"shielded" loops?  In other words, what makes this antenna any better
than a shielded loop (even a multi turn loop within a shield) where the
barrow band "coupling loop" has been replaced by a broadband balanced
input preamplifier?
