X-ray pulse height spectra of the most active cool stars in the Hyades cluster obtained with the Einstein IPC cannot be satisfactorily fitted using isothermal thin plasma emission models. Addition of a second isothermal component provides acceptable fits. However, a more physically meaningful set of coronal parameters is provided by models which consist of an ensemble of loops wih a single maximum temperature, but with the temperature distribution within the loop determined by loop physics. Such models have been successfully fitted to the IPC pulse height spectra. Constraints on loop parameters are discussed for the F-G dwarfs BD + 14 deg 693, BD + 14 deg 690, BD + 15 deg 640, and 71 Tau. Models with a large variation of loop cross section from base to top do not fit the data. A consistent physical description is an ensemble of small high-pressure loops of similar maximum temperature which dominate the coronal X-ray spectrum.
