Default AM radio in office tower

In my old office I could use a small clock radio to listen to AM radio (Fan 960 mainly).

In my new office (new building) cant get 960 at all and almost the rest of the dial is all static/interference.

Anyway to get AM reception without breaking the windows to shove an antenna out the window? (Cant use streaming radio from the internet.)

I've worked in two downtown office buildings, and neither of them can get it, I can't even get it on car radio in the parkade!

You don't need to break the window to use an antenna. Just take a length of insulated wire, strip the end, and attach that end to you radio's current antenna. Then wrap the new wire antenna around the glass of the window so it is by something where the signal can hit it.

You could also just listen to favourite radio station online.
