You should get several stations 60 miles away with a few feet of antenna during the day and more at night. May need alignment, might have a resistor that's drifted too high and is reducing gian, a weak tube or something else, but whatever it is should be found and fixed.

Many radios that need a long wire I'll hook one terminal of a loop from a scrapped 40s radio to the antenna terminal of the radio.... It's not as good as a long wire but it grabs the Milwaukee locals and the 50kW Chicago clear channel stations.
