In first analysis it does not seem to make much sense to use a magnetic loop antenna with SDR because it has a high "Q". In other words, its bandwidth is very narrow, opposing some of the best characteristics of the SDR that is able to monitor a wide spectrum of frequencies in receiving mode.
But in my case, the magnetic loop antenna has been a good option for SDR operation indoors.
