Ok so a little update, I checked for "voltage sag" when my AC turns on and off and it actually does the opposite, the baseline voltage is 119.5 volts AC coming out of the wall when the AC is not running and spikes to between 120.5-121.1 Volts AC coming out of the Wall when the AC is running... Is that normal?!

I don't know if this would affect things or not but the way whoever put the AC in in this house did it, they wired the AC Compressor up to an old ungrounded 220V Electric dryer outlet that was in the old laundry room in the basement of my house, and my house was built around 1933 and none of the outlets in my house are actually grounded (they have grounded outlets installed but they aren't actually grounded because the house still has its original ungrounded romex wiring running throughout the house yet).

I hope this is enough information to go by to figure out what's going on with my radio.
