OK, I have a question about my Heathkit Signal Generator,
Band 1 works fine and produces a the 400 Hz test tone for the IF Alignment like I need it to, but when I go to use Band 2 which is the 550-1600 kHz band used for aligning the AM tuning band on the radio dial it doesn't produce any sound, but it does on Bands C-F which are for SW and Long Wave and FM Alignment work.

Is it possible that there's something wrong with the circuitry inside the signal Generator that's causing it not to produce the 400 Hz test tone on Band 2 of the signal generator, like a bad tube or a bad coil?

Any help with this issue would be great.

By the way I am using a blocking capacitor inline with the test leads on this signal generator.

Also I just got my new (to me anyways) Frequency counter and I need to get a Male BNC to Male BNC cable so I can hook my signal generator to my Frequency Counter, and I see a 50 Ohm version and a 75 Ohm version, does it matter which verion I use or do I need to use the 50 Ohm version for proper function of the frequency counter?

Thanks for your input on this matter.
