Aim TTI AWGs

Can anyone share their experience with AIm-TTi Arbitrary Waveform Generators?

I'm looking to buy TGF4242 for my home lab.

Don't bother. I have tried the TGF4042 but it has serious issues where it comes to the frequency resolution. For example: something basic like producing a 10MHz and a coherent 1Hz signal is not possible. I ended up with a Tektronix AFG31000 series generator for more demanding tasks.

thanks for the heads-up.

of these cheaper AWGs- Rigol, Siglent, etc-which 150-200 MHz AWG has the least amount of problems?

Probably the Siglent SDG2000 series but I don't know what the max frequency is it supports. According to people on the forum the Siglent SDG6000 series (which supports higher frequencies) has several unresolved issues and Siglent isn't in a hurry to fix them.

SDG2000X models max out @ 120 MHz whereas SDG6000X models start from 200 MHz.
Unfortunately the SDG5000 series with isolated channels have been discontinued and their top model was 160 MHz although they didn't have some of the fruits of the later X models.
