Years ago I had a single conversion Radio Shack shortwave all bander. It was
ok until I put a wire on the antenna terminal. Like magic, I got a lot of
the local am radio stations repeating over the dial.

I'd say getting a double conversion set should be the very minimum
requirement. If money and choice allow, get a triple conversion.

Some have said that the more conversion stages you go through, the more
noise you get, but I haven't played around with enough different sets to be
able to form a valid opinion on that.
