I had EXACTLY the same deal in 1989. I guarantee you, that  
Naragansett Electric guy made a believer out of me with the CFLs.

This was done for me out in Westerly at the time. Had just moved from  
Middletown. I had no noise whatsoever from the CFLs. Still don't. I  
was happy to have my bill drop by $15.

My only problem with them is that they don't come on full brightness.  
It takes a full minute to come to full power.

Interference on any band is nil though. Can't beat it.
