i see from the waveforms, that "stuff up to about 25MHz" has miserable
amplitude, most "stuff" is in rage to about 5MHz max, so like you said
earlier "bandwidth like 2MHz" is probably all that i really need.
"4X the fundamental frequency" is only about 260Khz for my coil, so
what`s the problem that you see with frequency modulation of this
signal? even if you assume Fmax=2MHz - what`s the problem you see, but
constantly failing to explain here?
even if you take the modulation index m=5 as in stereo broadcasting,
this only means carrier frequency about 10-12MHz, and Fmax would be
about 22MHZ max - what`s the problem again?
as i see here:

your LEDs was happy with "40+ MHz" - so why my LEDs should be unhappy
with only 22MHz?

I have never heard of a coiler blowing up a pole pig! A pole pig can
easily blow up a coiler, however. You could also be hit by a bus though.
