Thanks Frank. IMO, this sort of clarification ought to be in the FD
RULES, not in an FAQ. We've done 1AB QRP for at least 8 years using
N1MM on a laptop running on a generator.
A few of the slower NUCs will run on 12V and are adequate for logging.
Would this ruling mean that its monitor must not run on a generator or
mains power?
What if the transmitter is being keyed by a WinKeyer which is controlled
from a computer running on a generator?

Q. What equipment at our Field Day site must be operated off of the
emergency power in order to claim the 100-point per transmitter bonus?
A. You must operate all transmitting and receiving equipment from
emergency power.
If you use a computer for digital modes/, and/or to control or operate
the radio, /it also must use emergency power.
