[VHFcontesting] Power budget

[Dan Evans]

Hello group,
I'm putting together a small (12') pull behind trailer for grid hopping / portable operations.  It's actually a 1967 Winnabago that I'm restoring / remodeling.
Anyway, I would like to add a small window unit air conditioner to make summer operating bearable.  The original AC unit is long dead, so I was planning to install a 5000 BTU.  This is the smallest unit I've been able to find.  My question is how much generator am I going to need for this setup?  I know one of the small inverter types should be plenty to run my radio equipment, but will it handle the AC?
I know there are plenty of guys on the list that have been down this road before, so I would appreciate your input!
