Then for  kicks, I connected my 3403C to see what was what (signal was at
1MHz  output).  The unit read 1.2V. It seems its reading the  peak-to-peak
value and not RMS. 

Anyone know if there is a simple  switch somewhere I've overlooked to put
this into RMS mode? Or this just  might be a junker unit

The ops and service manual is available for download from BAMA.
 
The basic impedance, without an inline terminator, seems to be 10  Mohms, is 
that the same as the 8568B?
If not the different loading might explain the difference  in level.
