Phil,
I've been using CFLs since they first came out and overall Philips is
the best bang for the buck I've found as far as low RFI and longevity. I
have one that's 10+ years old and used daily and it's just now bebinning
to dim a bit. They do tend to get noisier as they age but even the
oldest of the bunch are still very RFI quiet. With the aquarium and
plant lights going there are as many as 20 going at once with no
interference. We also have 2 Philips LCD (not LED) TVs with no RFI problems.
The worst tend to be the no-name or store brand bulbs and "Made in
China" is something to avoid (if possible).
Now if I could get my neighbors to upgrade their plasma TVs to LED...

So they key is for us to figure out which devices have better RFI
suppression... and it wouldn't hurt to have a reference for DXers to know what
to get. We can start by providing feedback to our eGroup on what works and what
doesn't.
Let us know what works and what doesn't or any research that you've done. I
will start to compile the results.
