From Jackson you should be able to.
I remember my dad used to listen to the A's (Philadelphia Athletics)
games at 1020kcs back in the 50's on one of those old hollow state boxes
with a built in wound loop (not ferrite). Indoors in Leavell Woods.

I can hear them (KDKA 1020) at 2320 (6:20 PM EST) at a good level.
