Lamp style LED bulbs by Ecosmart (from Home Depot) are dead quiet here. Can't speak to the fluorescent tube types.

  Budget is very tight here. A couple of years ago, my wife and I converted all the lights in the house from CFB to LED lights and the savings on our monthly bill have been signifiant. $22 dollars a month on average. 


  The downside is that the LED bulbs put out a lot of noise on LF, MW, and HF. 


  A few months ago, I saw a thread about some LED bulbs that were ham-radio friendly, putting out considerably less EMI than other bulbs. Alas, the link was broken. 


  Has anyone found an LED light bulb that is radio-friendly? If you have links to directly purchase them, even better. 


  Thanks in advance.
