Take a look at thefollowing web site Don. Their XG-1 test oscillator
ju7st might fill the bill for you.

Subject: [TenTec] Practicing with the Orion


After reading through the manual today and paying particular attention
to "Weak Signal DX Reception, Contest Operation and the Orion" section
it occurred to me that I don't know what a 3db above the noise signal
threshold sounds like.  I know what I consider to be a weak signal but
if you want to sit down and just practice using the filter settings it
would be nice to have a reliable signal to use.  So my question is does
anyone know of a (relatively) inexpensive signal generator (schematic)
so that I could purchase/build one?  OR perhaps someone knows of another
way to do this?



Thanks
