Nothing fancy, an old clunky & humble 2 Mhz

Tek FG501A.

AD9850, (+ ATmega328)

and a 500 series 11Mhz tektronics plugin

An or-x 660 also cloned as the B&K 4076. Not sure who, if either, is the original manufacturer. 125Ms/s and up to 50MHz output (though not really "arbitrary" at that frequency as you only have two points per cycle!)
A Marconi 2024
Various Marconi 2022's that need some degree of attention.
One of these - don't laugh, it's occasionally useful for audio stuff.

I have been looking at the siglent sdg805 is it worth buying?

GrumpyDoc, nothing wrong with it, I have an old HeathKit 18-72 audio generatoir that works fine except the meter doesn't work. I only paid $10 at a hamfest for it and people are asking too much money for Heathkit VTVMs to cannibalize it for the meter movement.

It's fine I have one of these http://proto-pic.co.uk/frequency-generator-kit-fg085/ and it is a bit crap but it works

R&S AFGU,
Textronix FG-503,
Belco MG-100,

And a lot of pulse generators.

mazurov · « **Reply #36 on:** January 22, 2014, 11:46:30 pm »

Wavetek 81.

georges80 · « **Reply #37 on:** January 23, 2014, 12:19:07 am »

Agilent 33250A that was a freebie from a place I consulted/contracted to. They closed down and gave me dibs on a whole bunch of stuff that the local liquidator was going to give them $0 for - so I got it for $0...

Was a good day for me when I went it to fill up the back of my vehicle with barely used test equipment

cheers,
george.

I use the analog discovery for arb stuff and my trusty DSOX2014 function gen option for most other things

Some old el cheapo analog generators as backup, too.

Phil

fpliuzzi · « **Reply #39 on:** January 23, 2014, 04:22:11 am »

Wavetek 185 function generator.
Digilent's Analog Discovery Module if I need an arbitrary waveform.

Also have an HP651A (sine) and a Heathkit IG-5218 (sine/square) that I assembled many moons ago.

Regards

HP 3325A with OCXO
HP 3212A
HP 8116A Opt 001

TMM · « **Reply #41 on:** January 23, 2014, 06:27:14 am »

Rigol 4062. The only thing not to like is the 16k points of arb memory.

I have a 1MHz soldering kit from Elenco. Aren't you jealous? O0
