I was wondering what would work best for listening


Hi Kris,

Staying inside the apartment has you soaking in noise. You will need
an antenna filter - a cheap, meterless three knob unit will do.

Look into getting it outside, possibly with a downspout. Check into
RG-178, a thin coax that borders on invisible. Put a choke at the end
that sees an ad-hoc dipole.
