Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Signal Generators
pros: good price point. Separate Freq output (one of the reasons I got it) Separate Modulation input too. Cons: ran it for 3 days strait. Drifts a little, but will work for AA5 tube radio alignment.

Unlike some of today's generators, this one is easy to use. I didn't even need to study the manual. Everything was obvious, it you have ever used one before. I don't know why these (all signal generators) are so expensive because they are just simple oscillators, but I guess it's the precision at which they run. I recommend this one.

I have found that it gives a decent signal through all the ranges. Of course to get the 150 to 450 MHz range it supplies a signal with an attenuated 3rd harmonic. It's usable but some equipment only sees the primary and not the harmonic. Would have been better if it had a sweep generator or FM. But good enough for most radio troubleshooting needs. Later models have a connector for adding an externa. crystal for greater stability. So if you need accuracy look for one of those.

Pretty nice for the money. Works well on all bands. I happen to have a frequency meter and find that the dial readings are very close to what the output is. Plenty good for most applications. I have set the IFs on my recent kit ham radio with this unit and the radio works fine, so I know this unit will do the job on bigger radios and IFs that need tuning. I was trained as a tech in the Army. But it has been a while since I've used my skills in civilian life. This unit puts me back in the technical ability.

I used this for generating a stable signal to make yagi antenna reception measurements. Hooked it up to a short 20M element and it put out a good signal Frequency a bit touchy but does stabilize. This is not a unit you would make precise adjustments with but for the money paid it did a great job for what I needed.
