How much improvement can I expect using Litz wire to wind a AM ferrite
Rod antenna as opposed to using solid copper wire?

Is it worth the trouble to obtain Litz wire, or can I expect almost
the same response at say 1 MHz using regular enamaled copper wire?

The difference will not be noticeable...
A higher "Q" , which is theoretically available with litz wire, is
only useful
in separation of strong signals in your applications. If you are
building
a simple receiver, your biggest problem will be stations which are
located
nearby overpowering stations which are not. A little bit of
selectivity
resulting from a slightly higher "Q" ain't gonna make squat for
difference...
...... but that's just a technical term..... Forget it and build the
damn thing...
