Re: What should I look for in a Signal Generator?

Humble suggestion - an IG-5218 Heath is a nice generator on its own, and in addition there are a bunch of great mods for it that make it into a very low distortion unit. It does sine and square waves up to about 100K, it doesn't use any exotic unobtainable parts, and they turn up on the Bay fairly often - for decent prices too.

I have a Leader sine/square/burst generator, but honestly my modded Heath is the workhorse. I just went through the power supply on it (it's 20+ years old!) and replaced the caps and the rectifier diodes (went to fast diodes). I love mine!
