Hmmm.. the heatsink base of this 40 watt bulb also gets too hot to touch
and feels like more than 40 watts also.

I just don't understand physics it seemsas how can there be that

It's probably worth noting that while the LED will run on DC *at full
intensity*, many/most of the controllers dim the light using PWM so in
that case there is a square wave of varying duty cycle driving the LED.

I did some research and Maxim makes ICs for offline LED lamps such as the
Home Depot lamps. The switching frequency is 50 to 330 kHz and the
incoporate frequency dithering to reduce EMI.
The standard they adhere to appears to be EN 55015, Limits and methods of
measurement of radio disturbance
so?

Jim, K9YC is absolutely right as usual. Another thing to do is to send
interference reports from LED bulbs to the FCC with copies to the ARRL,
and include the NAB (National Association of Broadcaster) who will be
sure to produce some public service announcements for the many member
stations
brand name and model numbers would be helpful please

They seemed like a good deal but cause noise interference

In my day job with a national wireless carrier, noise from new green lighting
systems are plaguing our base stations. I've been working with two major
lighting vendors that are very serious about resolving the issue since the
alternative is a date with the enforcement bureau.
