I am getting back into circuit building, mostly QRP rigs and homebrew HF stuff, where can I find a good price on a function generator, and what kind of bandwidth do I need?

Hello.
Even the cheapie units will usually cover all of HF.
Sometimes you can find a service monitor for cheap, it just depends on what is out there.
Ebay is one place to look, and the hamfests are nice.
But, for that real bargain, I look at estate sales as well as all forms of government auctions.
Your local govenment may go to 700 MHz whiz bang digital trunking.
So, they may get rid of the old service monitors.
I got a really nice service monitor in just such a manner.
