Default 60 HZ hum on AM car radio near powerlines - any ideas

I've tried connecting ground wires to the body from the antenna shield near the
radio, or the metal cap/nut that tightens the antenna into the body, with no
affect. I still get real obnoxious hum whenever I am near powerlines. Has anyone
here had and solved this problem?

The radio is a Pioneer "supertuner" AM/FM/CD unit.
