[Elecraft] Heat related issue

That is correct.  As we read the rules, only the radio equipment needed to use the "emergency power" which in our case was battery.  We did run a generator to operate one A/C unit in a black trailer and only because the long run of cable from up at the house had too much voltage drop causing the logging compuker to suffer during brownout conditions.  Other amenities were operated off commercial mains, although they could have been run off a generator as well.  Amenities mostly included the fan & beer cooler.
