Take your radio for a nice picnic way out in the country. Get away
from your car and any electronic crap you have. If its working OK
you will not believe the difference. Almost EVERYTHING that plugs
in or runs on batteries causes interference to the AM band.
Our shop like most used florecents. We got one AM station & if it
came in the radio worked. The only radio that worked good was a late
30's Zenith console. That had a big loop antenna ( Wavemagnet ).
built in. That radio could show how GOOD AM could sound. I miss
that radio. A customer just had to have it & payed $400 for it.
