Can anyone give me simple directions on how to set up GQrx to listen to an AM radio broadcast.

It would help to know what you are using as a receiver/SDR.

If no one here chimes in that can help (personally not familiar with the RTL-SDR usb dongle), then I'd check here: https://www.rtl-sdr.com/forum/

Lots of info here, too: https://www.rtl-sdr.com/about-rtl-sdr/

Hope this helps a bit.

Setting the device string to 

rtl=0,direct_samp=2

 works for me.

Thanks. That allowed me to at least get the tuner down to radio range... I'm not seeing radio stations, but then I am in a MOL Faraday cage condo.
