I have read that SW is really only good in the North East of the USA
and in Europe.
Not correct. Those are the places where you can get SW with a cheap radio.
You'll be able to get plenty in Kansas, but not with a $12 radio. If you
decide to get serious, spend a couple of hundred dollars on a decent
portable. Your location is good for getting stuff from your south, for
example (Central and South America and the Caribbean), and you should be
able to get a decent number of stations from Europe as well.
