Hi Bob I dont have one but I dont see why that "trick" would affect the
hardware.....it is just a trick to fool the procesor into going below
100kHz. Of course you dont know what the sensitivity will be like down
there.Most of these radios have attenuation on the MW and lower to keep the
IMD from strong BC stations down. So it may not be brilliant down there.

I can confirm, after experimenting, that the fooling of the microprocessor has the negative side effect that the uP
switches away from the internal ferrite antenna, as it has been surreptitiously convinced that the band where the radio
is being tuned on, is outside the LW/MW segment.... there is no a free lunch... so either you use the small telescopic
rod, which on LW/MW is of no use, or resort to an external antenna...
