What are some signal generators for ATE test?

Requirements:
100MHz to >=10GHz (higher would be better)
Settling time less than 1mS
Reasonable phase noise
Cost, less than mortgaging a house.    :)


1ms settling time is fairly fast.

Holzworth has some nice synthesizers with very fast tuning (that's what I needed) and great phase noise performance. They're not too expensive ($7k for a 4GHz unit, and as I recall, it's about 1k/GHz to go up from there)

Minicircuits also has some USB signal generators

SignalHound has a $1200 12GHz USB tracking generator to go with their $2000 12 GHz spectrum analyzer. Limited output power range -30 to -12dBm. Says it can do 700 points/second which is comparable to your 1 millisecond need.
