Thanks, Jim.  Not looking at any specific ham band..............would prefer that It be EMI-Free on all (or as much as possible) of the HF range.  Always appreciate your insights into these matters.......as well as your write-ups and tutorials.

And on what band(s) does it need to be quiet?  Page 13 of the link below

details what we had to do to a GOOD unit to make it quiet enough to hear

weak signals on a Hamstick 3 ft away. The little clamps with no winding

(with ferrites, this counts as a single turn) are for VHF; those with

multiple turns are for the HF bands we were using mobile -- 15,20, 40.

Except for those single-turn clamps, all the ferrites are Fair-Rite #31.

BTW -- we were unable to kill noise from a bigger unit in the same

product series of "pure sine-wave inverters."
