Hi,  just a comment.  I bought a TS-413 sig. gen. by Harvey Wells at a hamfest a
couple of years ago for $50 as I recall -  great signal generator for what I do and
the attenuator works well - this generator is built solid - so I gave up my "lab"
grade heathkit,  which had no effective shielding and use the 413.  I like the
separate output for attaching a freq. meter that can be used to tweak it where I
want it.  Only drawback,  it's big but works for all the alignment tasks and other
occasional jobs,  Dan.
