One problem with AM is interference from other, authorised, transmitters, especially at night.
Most contenders for frequencies that were once occupied mainly by one powerful transmitter a long way away are usually occupied by local radio stations these days! Take a look at the list here!
However, with the closedown of the BBC World Service transmitter at Orford Ness, 648kHz should be a nice clear channel throughout the UK and (most of) Europe - there is a 10kW transmitter in eastern Slovakia, but that shouldn't bother you much!
