slightly rotating or re-positioning the loop antenna will usually improve the AM reception.  
3. Automatic tuning depends on the signal strength of the broadcasting station, so weak  
stations may be skipped. You can manually tune to find the weak stations if a station  
gets skipped. With strong signals, the tuner may stop before it reaches the actual
