Sansui TU-9900

I bought a Sansui TU-9900 tuner about a year ago. It has great sound
and FM reception with a simple dipole antenna, but the AM reception is
very bad. I hear a load hum. Do I need an antenna for AM reception as
well? I tried moving the ferrite bar antenna around but it doesn't help
much. I don't listen to AM much but would like to fix this problem.

Had this tuner aligned, now all is well.
