Hi Chris,

Might want to look into purchasing an older diesel generator set.  These can
often be had for several thousand dollars in sizes up to and beyond 150kw;
the type that portable gravel crushers and asphalt plants use.   Smaller
ones can be had for cheaper if you look around.  Just be prepared for
spending a little(!) on diesel fuel, as the big ones can suck up to
500-1000+ gallons of #2 a day.  However, on the bright side, you wouldn't
have to worry about rf feeding back into your house, and you could probably
feed several of the largest coils that Bill Wysock has got simultaneously,
should you ever host a Teslathon!
