Well the only solution then is to encase the AM radio in Cavorite. Or listen to
media on your phone as you suggested earlier... Dach.
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are" - Theodore Roosevelt “We
reached the old wolf in time to watch a fierce green fire dying in her eyes
.... I was young then, and full of trigger-itch; I thought that because fewer
wolves meant more deer, that no wolves would mean hunters’ paradise. But after
seeing the green fire die, I sensed that neither the wolf nor the mountain
agreed with such a view.” - Aldo Leopold

There is zero hope for an AM radio to function correctly in a home built
EV.
You are inside a metal box next to a 100 kW unshielded broadband AM
radio transmitter.
Many of the early OEM EV's simply didn't have an AM radio at all, for
just this issue.
