Strobe light feedback

Hi, I recently installed a strobe light on my trike. But when I am flying ie higher revs on the engine and the strobe light is on, I get intermittent feedback through my radio coming from the strobe light. I am now running the radio on it's own battery not from the mains. so the interference is coming through the antenna (Vee Rabbit).
Has anyone got advice on this please, is there some sort of magical component I need to install to prevent the feedback???

He is the expert

I have been chatting to Paul (Zulu1) and he gave me a solution. And that was to take a RF suppressor and clip it over the power line close to the strobe light.
I took the one from a radio charger and did that this morning. Works like a charm!!! vhpy vhpy
I flew this morning with it installed and not a single scratch or noise from the light. And for the first time since installing the strobe I can actually use it!!!
