Hello:

Looking for a good used basic signal generator. Looking at something like a HP 8656. . Anything better in the same price range and features.

Where are you?  I have a Wavetek 2500 available in the Seattle area.  400kHz to 1100MHz.  Passes every test I can throw at it which is pretty much everything but the modulation distortion tests.  Spec-wise, I suspect it's similar to the 8656, but I've not compared them in detail.
