If a long wire outside antenna isn't practical or attractive (philosophically), a loop antenna (e.g., the Select-A-Tenna, still available from C C Crane, I think) may help. The other problem you have, unfortunately, is that chances are the AM section in your Kenwood isn't great. If you can, try a 1960's (or even earlier) tube tuner with AM(e.g., a Sherwood, Heathkit, EICO, or Fisher). The AM sections in these were meant to be listened to, and likely have superior RF performance, too.
all the best,
