SWL in a downtown apartment...(curses!)

a studio and there is no roon for an outdoor antenna(which would pick
up more noise anyway).

Sounds pretty hopeless. Just for kicks, try connecting a piece of wire
from the ground screw on an electrical switchplate to your receiver's
antenna port. This works pretty well with my the Sangean ATS-803 in my
2nd floor bedroom. The length of wire from the "ground" screw to actual
rf ground can be pretty long.
