The thing is that RX won't be affected much by the SWR. That is a TX thing. So the question remains why haven't you heard anything? As I said earlier, try finding some net frequencies and times and find some wire to string about the apartment/house. That way you can find out if the BITX has RX issues or if your antenna location isn't working.
Good luck and 73!

Thanks for all the responses. I was actually Fred's guidance that did the trick. I had the antenna close to 1:1 in about 15 minutes before herself decided we needed to do other things. I'll get it tuned today and hook the radio up to it and see where I'm at then. Thanks for all the help everybody!
