FM raidio. because it seems to have a inherent nose reduction capability not possible with AM.
FM radio is inherently less sensitive to natural noise ... not immunebut significantly less sensitive ... than AM radio is.
XM radio does not have static interference. It's a digital signal, so you'll either get a crystal-clear sound or none at all.
The interference of radio waves is commonly referred to as "static" or "noise". This can be caused by various factors such as atmospheric conditions, electronic devices, or other radio frequency signals.
Yes, LED light bulbs can interfere with AM radio signals. This interference typically occurs because the electronic components within the bulbs, such as the driver circuits, can generate electromagnetic interference (EMI). The interference can disrupt the radio frequency, leading to static or distortion in AM radio reception. However, the extent of the interference can vary based on the bulb's design and quality.
Probably localised interference from a nearby source. Many electrical motors don't have suppressors fitted - when they run, they send out interference which can be picked up by any radio or telephone.

Common faults in AM radio receivers include poor reception due to antenna issues, such as a broken or improperly connected antenna, leading to weak signal strength. Additionally, faulty components like capacitors, resistors, or tuning circuits can cause distortion or loss of audio clarity. Interference from nearby electronic devices can also disrupt performance, resulting in static or unwanted noise. Lastly, improper tuning or alignment of the receiver can lead to difficulty in locking onto stations.
Static sounds in a radio can be caused by various factors, including poor signal reception due to distance from the transmitter or obstacles like buildings and trees. Interference from electronic devices, such as microwaves or fluorescent lights, can also contribute to static. Additionally, atmospheric conditions, like thunderstorms, can affect radio wave propagation, leading to intermittent static. Lastly, issues with the radio's hardware, such as loose connections or damaged components, may also result in static noise.

Radio static letters : "EMI"
The first radios were untuned radio telegraphs that broadcast a burst of radio static generated by a powerful arc when keyed. The receiver used a device called a coherer to detect this burst of radio static and activate the telegraph sounder. It took the development of vacuum tube triodes to modulate radio waves with voice and music as well as provide tunable radios. Armstrong invented improved receivers like the Superheterodyne and improved modulation techniques like FM that rejected static and noise.
AM radios are based on the principle of sound waves being sent through the air. If the AM radio station has static, you may wish to move to a new area where reception is better.
