I ran my ThinkPad from an inverter last year off a 1050 amp CCA car battery
Along with my FT-100D at 100 watts all day Saturday, no problems what so
ever,
I have seen some noisy inverters, but I have been lucky so far in that
Even my inexpensive ones (read 50 bucks or less) have been pretty quiet
In the HF RFI aspect.


Good luck, Hope to work you this year from the club station here
K5SLD,
