We own a few 83650B  HP Swept Signal Generators and  I was wondering what a good replacement would be ( with a little lower start frequency  :-D )  The 83650B has a range from 10 MHz to 50 GHz. So what is everyone using out in the calibration world?

The PSG is a great replacement for the 836xx Series Signal generators. If you option it up right you can also replace the low phase noise signal generator for phase noise calibrations.  As well as the external AM modulation source required for sweep time calibration. 

Let me know if you are looking for one new.  Cal Lab Solutions is a Keysight Solution Partner.  We can resell Keysight hardware as well as build complete calibration systems..
