Somehow my last post got trashed. Agree that a 2'X2' loop with about 14 or so windings spaced out 1/4" apart and tuned with a 365 mfd or so variable capacitor ( you can add more fixed caps if your scrounge value is less) Add a sensing loop of one turn to hook up to your Antenna and Ground connections, or operate closely in parallel with your set's loop antenna, and in no way make direct connections to a transformerless set! You do have to get the receiver and the antenna to agree to a peak to do the magic.
Results will astound you unless you are in a sub basement or an iron clad home. Tons of information on the net try "Loop Antennas."
Of course program material is another matter, but I did chat with DJ 900 miles away after picking up a signal on my 1946 Philco portable a couple of years ago on a winter's night.
Anyway hope this one sticks. Best of luck!
