Default Good/bad locating conditions

I was told that if you tune the AM radio to a somewhat distant/weak station you can get an idea of what the locating conditions are by the reception you get--good reception means good locating conditions, poor reception means poor locating conditions.

The solar x-rays affect the lower frequencies first.
