Microwave / Generator issues.......
I recently acquired a Honeywell (Generac) 2000 watt inverter generator which seems to be in really nice shape, (and a hell of a lot quieter than my big old Champion). The gen starts really easy, puts ...

I'm wondering what the waveform is like on those, if it's more modified than sine wave.
I'm guessing it's a modified sine superimposed over the mechanical sine from the generator itself. at low load it's more modified sine and as the load increases to maximum output it becomes a pure mechanical sine from the generator. If it's a digital inverter, the modified sine could have 256, 512, 1024, etc steps, much better than old school analog modified sine that might have only 4 or 8 steps.
if I can find an unfiltered AC to AC wall wart in my junk drawer, I'll hook my Tek up to one of my Yamaha and find out... sometime :)
