After searching for about a week now on Google I think I may have stumbled
on something here. What do you guys think about this AM loop? If nothing
else it should atleast work better than the internal Ferrite Loopstick
right? It requires no tuner.

Hi Bill,

Give it a try. It may work for what you want it to do, but if you add
a capacitor, it will do considerably better. Also, claims of
canceling noise are rarely demonstrated without care and attention to
design (this one does not go that extra mile).
