Default Antenna for weak AM station

There is a station near me, AM 1240. It's fairly weak,
I'd love to be able to get it inside my trailer. Out in both
vehicles it comes in OK. Talk radio, and some hosts I
enjoy.

Been wondering if a mobile truck radio would work.
Run an outdoor antenna. Mobile antenna from Wal
Mart or something, from the auto department. Problem
is, that the cowl mount antenna is for FM, right? I
doubt I've got the skills to wire one in, too many wires
on the back of a mobile. Any kind of radio come with
outdoor antenna for AM? I guess I do have a ham set,
an old Heathkit which is fitted for long wire antenna.
C Crane is supposed to make good stuff, but a bit too
high zoot for me.

Any other ideas?
