I use the 2000 model of the same generator.  We have run it for 24  hours 
straight on 3 different Field Days without a single problem.  In one  case we had 
2 stations running with 2 computers and lights.  We get about  5-6 hours per 
gallon.  It is quiet both electrically and audibly.   Highly recommend.
 
I would think the 1000w model would work just fine for 100w operation (your  
transceiver would draw about 200w) unless you also plan on running a lot of  
other accessories in your camper.  However, for a few dollars more, I opted  
for the 2000 model for the extra headroom and versatility if I needed it for  
other uses.
