How can I get AM reception in my office?

[BrokenVisage]

I like listening to sports talk radio while at work, but since they moved my office I have no windows where I can put my radio to get good reception, and now I have nada. I was thinking about getting some powerful short wave radio to try and pick up a signal but don't know where to start looking or if it would even help since amplitude modulation is such a sucky band for radios. Wish the station (610 WIP for those in the Philly area, letting me hear Anthony & Steve and most of Eskins show) would quit holding their dicks and stream the signal already, but for now I'm just looking for suggestions and solutions, if there are any.

make a radio jammer, and make sure nobody else can listen to AM radio until you get an office with windows.

Surely you can find your shows on the web, somewhere. You might have to listen to news/weather in another state, but you won't have all that static.

I can't, I've looked.. Infinity Broadcasting is one of those fucking hardass broadcasters who think the Internet is the devil and fear us little pirates like the plague. I did hear something would be in the works for 610 to be streamed but who the hell knows when that will be.
