With the fees I would pay to Subscription Radio in 2 months, I could
put together a very good antenna for office use.

MSH,

Three 'different' Radio Bands and two to three 'different' Antennas

1. SW - For 'improved' Shortwave {SW} High Frequency Radio
Reception try a simple Random Wire Antenna .
OR - Try an On-the-Window Shortwave Antenna that is 'taped' to an
outside looking Window. Keep the Antenna Wire element about
3"-6" away from the Frame of the Window.

2. FM - For 'improved' FM Radio Reception try a simple FM Folded
Dipole
Antenna that is 'taped' to an outside looking Window. Keep the
Dipole about 3"-6" away from the Frame of the Window. Or try
placing the Dipole on the Window at a Diagonal Corner-to-Corner.

3. AM - For 'improved' AM Radio Reception try a simple AM/MW Loop
Antenna about 4-8 Turns that is 'taped' to an outside looking
Window. Use very thin #30 AWG Magnet Wire that is placed
on the Window about 3"-6" away from the Frame of the Window;
with about 1/2" between the individual Loops.
