Any competitors to Tek AFG3000 series ?

Question

Hi:I was looking at Agilent and Fluke's offerings this morning to see if there is anything competitive with the Tek AFG3022 dual channel function/ARB generator.The dual channels are incredibly useful.  Testing phase-frequency detectors for instance is a breeze.  I won't spend money on a non-dual function generator again.  But for $2480 the Tek AFG3022 is a possible candidate even to purchase for my home use.  Well, after I have some money again that is.  I'm broke now after buying a couple of power supplies and HID flashlights ;-)So is there a *dual* channel function/ARB generator even up to 5-10MHz that is as affordable as the Tek?  Doesn't seem that way.-- Good day!________________________________________Christopher R.
