Thanks for the suggestion.  I didn't think a generator would be that
affordable.  I may consider it as a secondary option.  However, the
thought of a noisy engine running just outside of timing and scoring
doesn't sound too appealing.  It's often difficult to hear things now
just with the noise of the cars.
