If you didn’t put a DC blocking cap between the signal generator probe and the plate of the 1st IF it’s possible you blew something out in the generator as it got hit with a high DC voltage. That pop might have been a resistor or two in the generator output attenuator network or possibly worse if the generator is a solid state unit!
