I suggest slowly figuring what you really need, watching for inexpensive club and merchant kits. A xtal oscillator makes a great signal generator or consider a pll signal generator from qrp labs or usr signals on the air. A qrp power meter is useful, but a diode detector and dvm can work also. Don't work too hard to find a used 100 mhz scope, one can be had cheaply if you are patient. Enjoy the journey.
