Radio, particularly AM, is a lost cause on home conversions. The EMI and
RFI is just to difficult for the home converter to deal with. Takes
serious and time consuming work on shielding and filtering of the EV
components and wiring to get it down to a level where you can listen to
an ordinary AM radio.
Even the early OEM EV's did not do well on the AM stations. I suspect
that the AM radios in EV's are somewhat special.
My best suggestion to this issue is to listen to a podcast on your phone.

Hello Everyone,
I have a Geo Metro that I converted electric and the radio has never been
able to pick up more than one station because of all the noise the dc-dc
converter outputs. I have been able to verify that the noise is being
picked up through the 12 volt input of the radio and not through the
antenna. I have tried putting a large line-voltage EMI filter on the output
of the dc-dc converter and it did not do anything. I also tried putting a
large capacitor on the output and experienced similar results.
Is there anyone out there who has had a similar issue and found a solution?
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Nathan
