Dash/interior lights are usually fade controlled by the light switch, that might be the problem, especially if you get uncontrolled dimming or fade outs. The radio just might need repair or your coax to the antenna could be damaged someplace and causing the poor reception. Finally, you might have a bad alternator providing poor B+. It should be a good strong 13 to 13.8 volts DC with the engine running.
