So what does one do with a pulse generator, and how is it any different from a signal generator? Jeff On 2015-11-03 21:14, Dave McGuire via vcf-midatlantic wrote:

Fired up my GenRad 1217-B Pulse Generator, which is mostly tubes (I think there's transistors in there somewhere, haven't had it apart in a long time), and set the pulse width to 1 mS:
Automeasure on the Tek 2432A says 1.04 mS, not bad! Especially since 1 mS is the range select, and the actual width is set with a vernier dial!
Very cool.
Unfortunately it's probably worth more for the tubes than as a pulse generator, nowadays.
Nonsense. Those look like pulses to me. And have you priced good pulse generators lately?
