A 5359A is sort of a specialty animal, but do get good mileage out
of mine every so often.

It's great for getting precise delayed sweeps on your scope, provided
your scope has a good sharp trigger output, and it is also useful for
generating LORAN GRI's and similar stuff.

One unconvetional use is as signal generator for TDR measurements.
