Reply to "Florescent light Replacement"

Curious if others have changed fluorescents to LEDs as part of improving command signal quality in the train room.  The hypothesis is stray radio frequencies put out by the fluorescent tubes.  I have more than 20 4-foot 2-tube fixtures in the space including lounge and storage room spaces.  Did that for myself several years back, both to end the slow loss of light intensity, regular replacement cycle problem with fluorescent tubes, and as part of problem-solving trains that lost their communication with the command base, mostly MTH as I recall but may have included some TMCC as well.  I think it helped with some of the mysterious communication dropouts.  Other simultaneous efforts make it hard to be sure of the cause-effect relationship.  Have others had similar experience?
