Yes, exactly my point.
Although one may find the local AM or FM station is "exciting" these
lamps, be they CFL or LED. They may, to some extent, generate the crap
we hear. For us hams, when we transmit the noise may be produced but
is not of concern in as much as they are quiet when we receive. But as
Jim, K9YC says, this may happen when a nearby transmitter is active, the
nearby receiver is plagued with noise.
Clearly the CFL devices I used for testing did produce many more and
higher level harmonics than the LED devices. I did not have a large
sample of lamps, but the ones used, did show issues with the LED units
showing less than CFL's.

With the transmitter off, the spikes again were not present. Not a
real analytical or scientific method but some degree of indication
that some are better than others, some are worse than others.
Sounds like classic received and re-radiated intermod, Bob. W3LPL has
chased this down, and I've observed it in our CW contesting trailer.
Set up in the middle of nowhere, no issues with transmitter harmonics
or intermod. Set up anywhere around civilization, strong harmonics and
intermod.
