Probably what you are looking for is a packaged DDS of some sort.  I 
assume getting an eval board from Analog Devices won't do (that's what 
we do at work, but then, you've got to package it. getting it in 1U 
wouldn't be a big problem.

I'd check the trade magazines (Microwaves and RF, Microwave Journal, 
etc.)  there are tons of ads through them for all sorts of boxes doing 
all sorts of narrow functions.

(The venerable PTS synthesizers won't do, I assume?)
