[Elecraft] Field Day

[Jim Brown]

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?
