Suggestions for a good digital signal/function generator?
#1

I want to get away from the old Clough-Brengle signal generator I've been using for a few decades now and get something where I can punch in the desired output frequency and know it will be accurate. It needs to have internal modulation, cover frequencies from longwave up to at least 30 MHz or so (60 MHz would be better), and have a sweep function.

And I don't want to spend thousand$ of dollar$ to get this.

I began to see the need for something like this when attempting to align my RCA C15-3 and my Hammarlund HQ-129-X, both of which want a sweep generator for IF alignment. Plus, both needed something more accurate than that old Clough-Brengle. Even running the C-B through a frequency counter, it is not possible for me to get, say, 455 kHz dead on at 455.000 kHz.

I've been looking at these two:

Advice, people, please...

and thanks in advance.
