I find it difficult to believe that you'd be getting noise levels that 
high from CFLs.  I have several in my home (different brands ... nothing 
special) and I haven't experienced anything being even close to that 
extreme.  If you're getting S9+40 QRN you should be able to pinpoint the 
cause, and I doubt you will find it coming from a CFL.
