Head down to Radio Shack and get a spool of "hook up wire" about
3.99USD, or "magnet wire" works great too, and it's nearly invisible.
Strip insulation off the end of the wire, then run the wire outside
through the window. Then toss the spool of wire over a high tree.
This will bring in a ton of stations.

The S350 is really nice for AM and FM too.

Good luck.

My wife gave me a Grundig S350 radio tonight for my 50th birthday. I tried
it out in my brick faced apt. bldg. All I could get was alot of static and a
couple of Montreal ,Canada and the voa out of DC. I saw that it has an
antenna and ground connection on the back. Being new to this I need to know
how to improve my reception without trashing my apartment building. I can't
hang any antennas off anything as it's brick exterior. I also have sliding
windows. What can I do? I remember my dad used to have a Zenith
Transoceanic radio that would pull in about everything. This little Grundig
doesn't seem that great. Thanks Hp in Seabrook,NH USA
