Hello
Want to thank you for the help. I now have an EICO324 signal generator that I got off of ebay. I didn't get any manuals, or leads. The leads I can make. I think it is good, because I can set a radio to a station and tune the generator to that RF and hear it on the radio.
Is this a good check? I noticed that there are slugs for each range. What would I need to calibrate this? I think I'll look around the internet to see if I can find a manual for it.
The web site that Raleigh put up is nice. They have a file for the book "Elements of radio servicing" that has a lot of good stuff for a rookie. Another question is do I need to get a tube tester? If so what is a good one?
Codefox1 mentioned Nixie tubes. They are old, back in the early sixties I worked on NC machine tools that used nixie tube read outs. I don't have any to send to him!!!
