Are these the small curly flourescents, about 13 watts sometimes

in some dollar stores?
I'm using a few of these and they seem to have a range of about 10
feet,
causing quite a bit of hum on the SW bands.

Gosh. All my antennas are outside. There's so much crap coming up
the power lines from outside I wouldn't think of using an antenna that
wasn't at least 10 feet from the house.

My antenna is outside also with shielded into the house. The
interference
from one bulb is very bad.
Then that one bulb should be returned to the store and exchanged for
another.




Every bulb in my house is compact fluorescent.

I can hear the TIS at LAX from 45 miles away. Before they took over
530 I could hear the Mojave National Monument on that frequency, about
60 miles. On HF I copy aircraft from thousands of miles away quite
reliably. I can get Bangalore every morning on 9690.
