** Follow UP** the folks at Powermate think it is a diode problem
(unless I am using my voltmeter wrong, I already checked them).

What kind of meter are you using to measure the voltage?
Does it measure the correct voltage level from the power company?
Could the meter be confused by the saw tooth or square wave out put of
most gensets vs a pure sine wave?

And what are you using to measure the frequency? There aren't a lot of
home-handyman instruments that measure frequency. I'm also thinking
that your measurements may be misleading because of waveform.

What is it that leads you to suspect that the unit has a problem? Do
things not work when they're plugged into it?
