The HP 70000 series modular measurement system allows one to configure a range of modules to do various things such as spectrum analysis.
There's an oscillator in the unit somewhere (I don't know where), but for higher accuracy one can buy an HP 70310A precision frequency reference, like this, although this unit is well overpriced. I paid $180 for mine. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HP-AGILENT-70310A-PRECISION-FREQUENCY-REF-MODULE-/110807441589?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19cca360b5 In fact, you need that precision reference if you want to use an external reference. I was wondering if anyone had put a rubidium in one. I have a unit which is dead, and whilst it might be possible to fix it, the idea of just keeping the case and putting in something else is a bit attractice. I know it has 10 and 100 MHz outputs, so one would need to generate 100 MHz.
