 My XYL & I built this house . We wired it & used  GFIs where required . Even where they weren't. Most were Chinese. Two were American.  I've had RF trip both kinds. Just random trips with nothing repeatable time after time. I found the easiest way to fix the problem was just replace the GFI. I  have no idea if it was component failure or just freak incident .Replacing has almost  always stopped the trips.I only had a pull one unrequired one & leave  the GFI out. Trips  would occur  every few months or so. Chinese.   For what it's worth....I operate 160m thru 6m &  no particular freq was worse than another. My old IC 746 would lock on 40m CW once in a while but that's another RF  story
