Central Iowa | Along time ago I took Radio station RF out of a church PA system. requires Capacitors on incoming AC line (similoar to the kits sold for cars) most good Electrrical enginneers or radio station maintence guys could tell you how to do this. Otherwise you may need to google another Talk site like this for you answer , If you don't know anyone. Basically there is a formula that allows for the current draw, AC voltage, and frequency you want to block. and you build a box the AC passes thru to block the interference, Assuming it is on the AC line. You will also need to determine if it is coming down the AC line or being induced into the antenna, or possibly the radio housing. Flourescent light buzz can be taken out of PA sysems sometimes by moving your ac breaker serving the radio to the opposite phase of the lights and off different breakers. And I sort of remember Radio shack or someone (parts express,digikey?) having a filter that plugs between your radio and the wall.
That should get you started. It really depends how severe your problem is as to how far you have to go to fix it. Sorry , I have no experience with your type lights, Or I may have known the exact answer.
You can also take a small portable radio and move it around inside the bulding and see if the interference is worse in some areas. If your vehicles have problems such as the previous poster then an outdoor antenna may/probably will help. also make sure radio is on a true grounded outlet, or ground the frame/chasis of the radio to a good electrically separate ground source(water pipe)
Good Luck
