Opinion of Wavetek 3000 series Signal Generator

[Don Buska]

Hey BA Guys,

I was reviewing the going prices on the WAVETEK 3000's series Signal Generators.  I
was surprised to see them selling for around $100-$200 range quite often.  Does anyone
in BA land have experience with these?  Are they any good?  How do they compare to the
Hewlett Packard 8640B which usually sells for a couple hundred bucks more?  Seems like
they have very close general specs.

Looks like it will be a good replacement for my HP608C, plus get the added LF coverage
need for BA alignment work.
