[BC] 3 phase to single phase conversion

Many new solid state boxes will run single or three phase.  Some three 
phase can be converted by simply moving a few wires and making a few 
heavier for single phase. I know all of the Nautel FM (NV) boxes will do 
that.  Harris's boxes can be ordered either way to 10KW, but requires a 
fairly hefty mod to convert one to the other.

Which box are you using?

Other than that, you're limited to the devices which locally produce 3 
phase by motor/alternator or electronic generation.
