Display disable function is extremely useful when LW and MW switched from internal ferrite to telescopic whip. Especially on LW it picks enormous amount of noise from it's display. Less noticeable on MW.

Todd not to brag but I'm in central Alabama and most times only a few I haven't been able to is picking up 780 wbbm my all time favorite station. I lived in the North burbs and drove to Elkhart Indiana once a day for 11 years..I listened every day but I think from here to pick up 780 strong too is pretty good 👍

Todd ..I love your vidz and thumbed up this one as usual, but using an external antenna is disingenuous to the radio's true capabilities. Most of us will never use external AM antennas. Let's check AM reception by the radio's merit. That's the true test!

Hey Taud, what’s your best recommendation for a.m. and FM DX. I live in Canada and we don’t live near any super big city and we don’t get very many stations in our area so I’m looking to pull in some long range signals. Do you have any good suggestions? Or any really good antenna set ups to try thanks for your help

I like the Sangean PR-D15 for this. Also the C.Crane EP Pro is worth looking into.

Should work the same as the internal ferrite, the signal comes perpendicular to the rod.

Important, you will notice this on fainter stations, and when two or three stations are on the same frequency at night, but from different locations.

@@byefelicia123 It helps a ton, but you need to be in a RFI free zone, hence the ability to mount the ferrite antenna 75-100 feet away from the control box. May look into one of those active loop antennas that have MW. They are ideal for noisy environments.

Why nighttime band scans? Any cheap radio will snag DX during sky-wave. Daytime ground-wave will prove any radio’s worth.
