Pith, you are just roaming around aimlessly. Find someone who has a scope/frequency counter and check out your sig gen. If you don't know if that is working properly your lost. I would not worry much about your voltages at this point. You can use your sig gen to figure out if you have other problems. It is a nice piece of test equipment but you need to know if it is working. As stated above, voltage measurements are important but can vary a lot depending on many things. If it is working you won't be tuning to "static", you will be tuning to an annoying tone.
