In you opinion, can I push my AM tuner from its 500-1600 khz to 4000khz
using some of the various mods presented in the previous post?
Or it's really too much?


What do you expect to hear with an AM tuner in say 3000-4000 kHz
range? There is very few AM transmissions.

In addition you would need a beat frequency oscillator, to make sense
of at least some of the transmissions.

I too would encourage the converter approach.
As to what there is to hear- this is the tropical AM broadcast band and some
of the rarest catches are located here, although I think I would prefer a
radio with a bit more sophistication.
