Older radios are more likely to be sensitive to low bus voltage; modern ones with switched-mode(?) power supplies less so.

It depends on the reason for the low SOC on the battery. If it's extended ground use of electrical equipment without the engine running, then the alternator should bring things back to a healthy state very quickly.

A knackered battery or faulty regulator/alternator may give problems.
