MIKROWAVE1 dives headfirst into the rabbit hole with this video . . .
Probably the simplest solution - but NOT A CHEAP DATE! - is from DXEngineering - almost plug in solutions for you - 2 different models from them - the Noise Canceling Signal Enhancers MFJ-1025 @ $269.95 and the Noise Canceling Signal Enhancers MFJ-1026 @ $299.95 - the $30 dollar difference being an antenna on the unit itself - which helps you detect/cancel noise from your in-house environment. And believe you me - there is a tremendous amount of noise coming from in your house - LED light bulbs are very noisy - fan motors - such as the blower motor on your furnace or your a/c unit outside - or window unit - computers/monitors - TV's - Everything that consumes electricity makes an electrical "splash" of some sort or the other.
One of the favorite things to do was night fishing - before the "crew" got all caught up in life - Yeah, I know - life ain't bad, but this day to day shit will kill you - was to drag out the GE Super Radio with a set of fresh batteries in it while fishing and listen to the oldies show on AM radio out of Toronto, Canada just as clear as it it was a local station - on from 9pm to midnight - and no I don't remember the call letters - but I remember damn near every catfish! . . .
One of the primary reasons it was so good - besides the radio? - you are out ( electrically speaking ) in the middle of nowhere - no interference! I worked some incredible AM broadcast band DX over the years while camping - and the vast majority of it was done with transistor pocket radios - nothing special or fancy . . .
Have Fun! - Run the Gun! - and remember - Fish Heads are Cheap!!
