You probably have a bad TRS (Transmission Range Sensor).
It's on the side of the transmission where the shift linkage goes in. It has 2 screws holding it on and 1 electrical connector.
Try unplugging it and see if the radio works then.

Haven't had this problem with my truck but, have had the identical problem on my wife's `97 Taurus. It was the TRS then on her car. Good luck!

If you can figure out how to make cell phones work like that you'll make a billion dollars. I can see it in the owners manual now "vehicle must be in park for you to use your cell phone".
