A big thankyou to everyone who replied to my recent e-mails on energy saving=
 bulbs.
I sent the message to 3 different lists and received 31 replies. The general=
 conclusion seems to be that the only interference to radio listening in rec=
ent times have been with specific rogue bulbs, not specific brands.There was=
 some useful advice on handling the hazards of disposal of bulbs. Some inter=
esting dialogue on whether these bulbs were as efficient and as long life as=
 claimed. Ideas that these bulbs were inappropriate for use where they were=20=
only on for very short periods, but suggestions that recent designs were bet=
ter in all aspects of operation.


So I come to the conclusion that perhaps I will try some but will devise a m=
eans of comparing band noise in parts of the spectrum that interst me.

Then serendipity kicks in. We were on holiday this week some 600 km from hom=
e. Go into a charity shop to buy something for =A31. and I am also given 2 f=
ree energy saving bulbs from Scottish Hydro Electric. They also decide that=20=
my wife can also have 2 bulbs. Now I have no excuse, I will have to try them=
 when I return.
