Since the QRM is RF energy, the best thing to do is go to a BnB or a cabin.
A new radio will be no more resistant to the RF noise mess than any other.
Sometimes a radio with a choice of narrow bandwidths helps - but only marginally.

Some of the nicer motels seem to be the worst. On a recent trip to my wife's family reunion in eastern NY we stayed in a Best Western in Ohio. Tuning the entire BCB I with my Sony ICF-SW35 I could hear 1 station clearly, and one faintly.
