    Hey Ape, the signal looked pretty noisy. Was that from the generator or the Hantek? For the price, it wasn't that bad. Still very usable. Thanks for the review.

    Other than making filters, Gear like this and a scope also open up many other rabbit holes you can go down with building your own electronics such as logic design and amplifiers

      The amplitude adjustment goes down to .000 volts in .001 volt increments. I connected it to a scope to verify and while the scope shows a lot of noise, I can definitely see a sine wave take shape going from .000 to .001 with greater definition as I increase the amplitude.

    The ability to have a dual-channel signal that is sync'ed gives you a lot of ability to generate complex output...could be very useful for filter examinations, rig testing, etc. Great video!
