HP 8657B RF Signal Generator 100kHz-2060MHz +13dBm/-143dBm OPT 001 003 - Parts

Manufacturer: Hewlett Packard HP

Model: 8657B

Condition: For Parts or Not Working. Comes in non-original packaging.  This unit is in fair cosmetic condition with lots of minor scuffs/scratches/residues from prior use.  The power switch is broken off.  The Amplitude down arrow is broken off.  The plastic covers on the screws holding on the side handles are broken and missing.  There is a funky texture over the Modulation display that looks bad when it's powered down but doesn't interfere with using the instrument.
The photos show the exact item(s) the buyer will receive.

Notes: This unit is in PARTIAL working condition.  The power button has to be pressed hard a couple times to switch on.  The keyboard buttons work.  The display is bright and easy to read.  We found during a brief test that there is NO OUTPUT signal from the RF OUTPUT connector, but the attenuators could be clearly heard stepping inside when amplitude changes were commanded.  Out of curiosity, we popped the bottom cover and took off the line before the attenuators, and found about 1.3V in the appropriate frequency, which we were able to monitor out to 1.5GHz (the limit of our counter).  We are not sure what may be wrong with this unit.   No other testing was done.
No manuals, cords/cables, or additional items are included if not listed or shown.
