Hi,
I use the Terk Advantage with my HD radio for A M reception, and it works 
very well.  The only disadvantage is that you have to tune the antenna every 
time you change frequencies on the radio if you want to get the maximum 
signal.

I like the Terk Advantage 1000 AM passive loop that couples with the radios
internal ferrite loop.  If the radio does not have an internal ferrite loop
then you can use the Terks mini phono output jack.  The Terk works great
coupled to an internal antenna, but I have not had so much luck when
connecting it directly.  I have also build loops by winding the loop on the
edge of a pizza box.  It works great, but is not as convenient as the Terk.
