I also have an SMA inverter on my solar system and no noise. Its been running for 3 full years. It is German made.

Actually  SMA makes also here in the states... ( probably assembles here.)



The other inverter that is RFI quiet is Fontus, not sure of the spelling.

    <http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/rfi>> and you will
    find hundreds of posts. The company was also the subject of a QST
    article by KQ6RS. In a word, SolarEdge is notorious for RFI
    problems due to their microinverters. The system installed next
    door is one of the reasons I no longer have a home station, if
    that tells you anything. But if the installer can supply Enphase,
    then you have a chance. If I had a choice, I’d go with a single,
    central inverter.
