[IRCA] Hand capacitance issues

["Mike Westfall, Lost Almost NM" <mwdx@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Those of you that have built loop antennas, what have you done to
mitigate hand capacitance effect when turning the varicap?
I just built me a quick 2 foot loop, and I notice that when I reach in
to tune the loop, it changes the tuned frequency a little.
