Hi Sanjaya:

the Icom is all choked down for MW / Broadcast band;

BUT It still does reasonably well,

( I can pick up WWV in Wheeling West Virginia
(And hear " The Coal Mine report" at 10:00 P.M. )

- so it's OK on that front..

Just plug the wire into the 500 ohm input. By their very nature, random

wires
have, generally, a high impedence.

Anyone know how the Icom IC-R75 picks up MW?
My portables have a ferrite rod. Does the Icom use
the same wire for SW and MW? Or will I need another
antenna?
