take the Grundig outside more than about 3 yards from the building, I get
crystal clear reception and stations from all over the place.

Any suggestions on how I can reduce the effects of RF
noise? I have the radio and antenna in a window, and it is still very
noise-laden, especially on SW. AM is a little better, but not much. FM seems
ok...but I don't listen to much FM on this radio anyway.


Sounds like a typical case of "steel frame building". It's not the
noise as much as the construction is shielding you from the RF.

Maybe a fish pole with 20-30 feet of magnet wire?
