Hi Dave,

All of the electronic ballasts that I have tested have been very bad 
from an RFI perspective.  That includes the Lumatek LK1000, the Quantum 
1000 and the Micromole 1000.  All of these ballasts are digital.  If a 
grower uses a magnetic ballast, RFI is not a problem.  I don't have a 
brand name, but there are some new systems coming out where the ballast 
and the lamp are integrated so there is no long cord between the ballast 
and lamp to radiate.  I'll try to find a brand name.
