You did real good, it sounds very nice for a radio from that period. Now if you only had an outdoor antenna away from buildings with a shielded lead-in connected to a good ground, you could lose a lot of that buzz riding on the rf. With an indoor antenna you're actually picking up a lot of your signal that's being re-radiated from your AC wiring. In other words your houses AC wiring acts like a long wire antenna, but it's also got all the noise on it.
