In my opinion, the easiest, most non-destructive way to do this
is to add a converter, using the AM radio as a tuneable IF for
AM transmissions.


Agreed.

And you can still listen to Rush Limbaugh by switching off the

Pick your 1MHz band, and tune away. You'll need to tweek a bit if
you want to be very far from 15 MHz.
