If it's only interference through the Earth, an opto-isolator will do the trick!

Check the earth on the radio and aerial first, before fitting any suppressors.

It occurs to me I was in fact talking rubbish. But if you have some way of isolating [not the opto- bit] the shared earth, you shouldn't get interference. But I'd go with the suppressors [after checking the Earth!
