My Radio City Products Signal Generator came in the mail today.
It does indeed have a High and Low RF Signal output connection, of which one is a banana plug hookup and thr other is the old Microphone style hookup like my Heathkit unit had on it, which has a old style mic jack to RCA style jack adaptor, which I might be able to swap it out for a BNC jack, because its the jack that could be used as a monitoring jack for a frequency counter, because it doesn't go through the attenuator, like the low RF output does, according to the manual.
I will need to recap it as it does have its original paper caps in it yet, thankfully they are common enough values that I can work with.
It also had its original filter caps replaced at some point in time, but they were just 20/20 at 450VDC caps and I can just stick some new 22mfd @ 450 VDC electrolytics in there pretty easily because where the caps hook in at there's a chassis ground connection on a terminal strip nearby that I can hook onto that would make for a nice clean connection.
They even included a new power cord for me to replace the original power cord which was shot.
This definitely seems like its a high accuracy unit.
