Have a look at this video its pretty good from ARRL on small
inverter generators. the filter part is the key.

I would not cheep out however get a cheep generator and it might do
you for a few years and you end up having to get another one
spend good money on a Honda or Yamaha and you have one for life.
we use an inverter generator for Field Day 4A+Gota and VHF running
various rigs and a serious selection of power supplies both linear and
switching. including desktops for each station its either been a
Honda 2800W inverter or a Yamaha 2400W inverter both have noise
filters at the generator and a ground rod at the generator. so noise
has not been an issue.

I want to take my K3 out for portable use and also training for
emergencies with my local ham friends here. I am thinking of buying
the Predator Inverter Generator that Harbor Freight sells. Does
anybody out there has had any experience with it while using it to
power a radio? Comments appreciated.
Ramon, NQ9V
