The Honda "EX" series are very quiet. I have a 1,000W luggable and a 5,000W
installed in my personal trailer.
They are both relatively quiet and have been very reliable over 5+ years of
use.

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.
