Hi Nick,
A tuned loop already has a lot of preselection capability, so the selectivity of the MW550P might not be that useful. At 12 dB maximum, it's not really high gain, but high gain probably wouldn't be needed in your location unless the loop antenna was quite small.
Or were you thinking of replacing the 550P's internal inductor with the winding of your loop antenna?
Since the MW550P has a large 6:1 vernier tuning capacitor, I was
thinking the MW550P could replace the loop tuning capacitor completely
and that it could perhaps sit inside the crate loop.
Is this feasible?
73,
Brandon
