The XG3's phase noise is a constant -105 dBc/Hz. This is pretty good for a miniature, wide-range RF generator that runs from a 9-V battery, and great for MDS tests (sensitivity), signal tracing, filter alignment, and S-meter calibration. But it is not suited to high-level IMD testing of receivers like K3's. That requires a signal generator with a lower noise floor.
