Default Re: Which signal generator?

Prices for the TF2016 seem to be quite firm these days so you might have to pay £100 for one. This generator is quite small and light so easy to move around the bench or put away when not in use.
Is it also worth getting the TF2173 Synchroniser if possible for more stability, or would a frequency counter be enough (which I already have)?
