Selling my HP E4431B ESG-D Series RF Generator which has 250kHz to 2GHz bandwidth as I've recently got an SMIQ06 and don't have need of two generators. The unit is in great functional condition and reasonable cosmetic condition. It has a couple of extra options (high stability oven, EDGE radio personality, extra memory: 1E5, UN8, UN9, 202), has comprehensive modulation and external input options, and was in calibration until March 1st of 2017. The calibration seals are still intact and everything to seems to be in great working order, well within the specification of the unit given the uncertainty of the spectrum analyzer's spec for measuring power level and with near perfect attenuation step changes.
Some features:
250kHz - 2GHz signal generator
AM and FM modulation from internal or external sources
External trigger and sync inputs
-136 to 20dBm output range settings (I believe datasheet specifies something like 13dB max output level, unlevel error shows up past 14.4dB)
High stability oven option

I've taken a glance at shipping fees and they have certainly gone up... so if at all possible, I'd like to sell to someone local. I live in Maryland a little to the northeast of Washington DC. If you're willing to pay some extra for shipping (the estimate from FedEx is $90 to California, but it may be lower closer, I can give you a quote), I do have a suitably large box to ship it in.
I'm also in the market for a good triple-output, triple display bench power supply (Rigol DP800 and Siglent SPD3000X are examples) as well as a Gigatronics 8651 or 8652 power meter, and I'd be interested in either for a partial trade.
