Is there a way to plug an external diapol antenna where the rubber duck antenna plugs in. Would it overload to much?

Not sure how you'd hook up a dipole to this radio, but you can definitely use a long wire. The way I did it was using a wire and a electrical ring terminal. Make sure to find a ring terminal with a hole that will fit the threaded part of the PR-D6 antenna. Crimp and/or solder the wire to the ring terminal. Once that is done, put the threaded part of the antenna through the hole in the ring terminal, and then screw the antenna into the radio. After that you can run the long wire anywhere you want.

does it tell you what type of converter to buy instead of batteryies/

Below is a link to the proper power cord for this radio. https://smile.amazon.com/Sangean-PR-D18BK-Portable-Receiver-POSITIVE/dp/B004I683BA/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1510712176&sr=1-2-fkmr0&keywords=DC+6+volt+%2F+0.4+amp+radio+power+cord+PR-D6BK

With the volume turned down completely, I still could hear the noise from 3ft away. Is it normal for this radio?

Apparently. It is not the best radio
