Okay,first thank you for your help...now here is why I had to rush into
it:
It was my dad's 80th Birthday.I promised him I would get and setup for
hm at his home a SW radio during our family Christmas party.My god how
the booze flowed and before you know it,I promised this, and then
yesterday morning my wife reminded me of my promise,which I felt should
be fulfilled yesterday,his birthday.......

So,I bought a Grundig 400 at Radio Shack for $110.00

Very good choice..fantastic Price..

The reason it was
so cheap is beause I am a morning drive talk/rock/ dj on "96.5 The
Mountain"-wdod fm Chattanooga,Tn.,and we have a long standing
relationship with a radio shack which is two locks away from our
studios.
I got the radio,bought a bunch of magnetic wire,took it over and told
him I would start studying the best antenna to build.
Any thoughts on this????

Yes; Look here..
