There will be a switching converter on any quality make of LED lighting.
The only way you avoid it is if they use a simple series dropper
resistor, which is not energy efficient.
LEDs are constant current devices, so there is no such thing as a 12V
LED (an LED with a 12V forward voltage drop

A linear voltage regulator is very quiet. That's just a bipolar transistor
passing the current with adjustable base voltage. I use them on my HB power
supplies for the same reason. No square switching

To avoid color shifts with dimming, most LED dimmers use Pulse
Width Modulation (PWM). PWM has the potential to generate RFI,
so be careful. The LEDs themselves should be very quiet. Using
LEDs with resistors to limit the current should also be quiet. A
system that switches LEDs for brightness

I've used this one for over a year, and pleased with it. My wire antennas
are only about 25 ft away and no noise issues:

I presume some of you have been through a selection process to find a usable
dimmable LED desk lamp with articulating arm that does not create RFI back
into your Flex on HF.
My current desk lamp (Halogen with mini bulb dimmable) makes a great deal of
noise in the 80 meter band and I'd like to
