You probably picked up Radio Casablanca better than I did tonight on my Icom R75!! Propagation is pretty dismal here tonight... even WWV isn't coming in! I did manage to pick out enough for a QSL though.
As far as interference goes, it depends on what kind. Those new "curly" CFL bulbs, wall warts, plasma TV sets, computers, fluorescent lights etc etc can all be a problem. There's 2 streetlights within a few hundred feet of my house, and when the bulbs in them start going bad, they give off tons of blaring loud intermittent RFI! Luckily my local electric company has a Defective Streetlight Report section on their website, so I can report them, and they're fixed within a few days. There's also the type of interference from 2 stations broadcasting too near (or on top of!) each other. Not much can be done about that though. Radios with a metal case do help shield out a lot of noise.
If you live in a metal frame building instead of a wooden one, that can be a problem also. Radio waves will have a hard time getting indoors. That's the "Faraday Cage" effect. In that case, you'll almost certainly have to sneak a wire outdoors through the storm window, etc and run it along the outside somehow.
