Suggestions for a good digital signal/function generator?
#2

Hi Ron,

Those both look good - I have used this (slightly simpler) unit quite successfully, priced around $66:

A warning though: the output does require some protection, as I managed to zap one channel connecting to a radio before thinking.... That warning would apply to any of these modern inexpensive generators. For IF and other alignment work, it is easy to use, and spot-on in frequency. I've used it on AM and FM circuits with good results, and the low frequency range allows for 19 kHz injection for stereo multiplex circuit alignments.

I bought a second unit, and use the first as the master oscillator for my SW beacon. It allows me to fine tune within 10's of Hertz and stays there.

Cheers,

Ed

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
