That's a very bad move -- by buying an RF-noisy product, we cause RFI to 
ourselves and our neighbors, and we cause more RF-noisy products to be 
sold.

Take it back and demand a refund. Tell them why -- but don't say ham 
radio, say that it interferes with your AM and/or FM radios.  If you 
hear it on 160M, chances are it will also be be killing an AM or FM 
table radio near the lamp.
