I have 2 LED bulbs (60W incandescent replacement) and have been unable to hear them, which is good. Today I bought 3 more types (at the local Ace, because I can return them if they make noise). So I'

Hi Greg, I suggest you build a fixture with a bulb socket on one end and an AC plug on the other end so you can light the bulb. Before you put the AC plug on the cord, wrap a toroid (eg FT117-43) ful

[build current probe] Thanks; that should get me far more accurate data than what I did. Since sending my earlier note, I made some measurements. I have posted them at: http://www.lexort.com/blog/ama

Greg: Thank you for posting your results. Information about what makes noise and what is (relatively) quiet is hard to find. I will say I am surprised. So far I have avoided LED lamps (A19 style) and

I was surprised when I got the first one. Please note that I said I have other RFI sources; an attic antenna is not a good situation to start with. I had dealt with a number of them, but the base lev

I just made some light bulb measurements using an RF current probe, an oscilloscope, and a spectrum analyzer. My current probe is flat within 3 dB from 500 kHz to over 50 MHz. The common mode current

No problems noticed here on HF with either CFLs (many years) or LEDs (more recent), both regular and the dimmables on a dimmer purchased at a big box supplier. Experienced one CFL that became noisy j

Also, my current probe sensitivity is 30 dB less that the actual power. That is to say if I put 0dBm into a 50 ohm resistor and sample one lead of the circuit, my current probe will show - 30 dBm. So

A spectrum analyzer is great for this. Most have the sensitivity of a receiver and any noise peaks (in or out of the ham bands) are almost immediately identified Depending on the scope you can view f

So far, I've replaced about 7 CFLs with 60 to 100 watt equivalent LEDs. Two 120 watt floods in the garage. I just took them off the shelf at Lowe's and Ace. There are natural light and warm white. No
