An LED will get you the brightness. I don't know about any RF generation, but if you're hearing it, I'd try a couple .001 uF/400v disc ceramic caps maybe to ground on either LED lead, or maybe one across the LED. Experiment, you can't hurt anything with such a simple circuit as and LED, dropping resistor and diode and a couple caps.
Breadboard the lashup and hold a transistor AM radio next to the circuit.
A quickie hard circuit beats three yellow pad pages of "what-ifs" and formulas.... Or wrap the lamp/circuit/fixture in grounded and insulated aluminum foil. Again, experiment.
There. Another Two Cents.
