What is the best way to measure unloaded Q of a tuned LC circuit (AM
loop Antenna) without a Q meter?
I tried a scope and generator and loosly coupled the generator to the
loop, using a single turn of wire and 50 ohm resistor, and monitored
amplitude against frequency, but I get different results depending on
the setup. The scope probe is 10X. The frequency of interest is 500KHz
to 2 MHz.
How can I accurately measure the Q of the circuit without a Q meter?
