Is there someway to keep static off my radio?

Do I have to wrap tin-foil around my controller? Time to build a Faraday Cage?

Nope, Haven't had any problems with FM radio, though our signals are pretty strong in the valley. Maybe some other part of the traction setup is the cause? Like, maybe running the motor cables as close together so the high currents in opposite directions will cancel most of the noise they emit. Were there problems before? or only with this controller?
