Radios and riding mowers

I like to use a noise canceling headset while listening to radio on my Zero turn as I mow.  I would prefer to listen to AM talk radio but the electrical interference from the ignition makes AM impossible to hear.  Is there a way to suppress the ignition interference from a Kawasaki engine so AM will come in?

  What you need is a system mounted on the mower. Think '90s with 12" subs, 6X9 and tweeters powered by a 1200watt amp. I wonder if they still make 12" free airs? The mower is a 12 volt right with a 140 amp alternator? Otherwise go old school with a ghetto blasters of the '80s. You know the ones you used to break dance to and I suppose these days you'll be breaking a hip.
