Greetings to all!
Looking for a signal generator with accurate and stable power output so that I
can use it with NANOVNA for calibration etc.
Besides the RF EXPLORER COMBO one, any else worth to mention?
You don't need a signal generator for use with the NanoVNA. It does its own calibration using the built-in signal generator.
And if you are considering using the NanoVNA as some type of spectrum analyzer it will perform poorly and you can check previous posts for the reasons why.

I use the builtin generator in the NanoVNA to help me put my old vacuum tube rigs solidly on a net frequency before I begin calling an SSB net.?? Without that, I have to call for help and ask someone to give me a count.? The problem is that my other signal generators are all old tube equipment, too.?? The NanaVNA works beautifully in this role.
