"I don't think I'd be too popular if I disappeared on the Friday ferry and didn't reappear until Monday. " Perhaps you can make a paper mache head a la prisoner of Alcatraz scrunch up a few pillows and escape with a spoon : )

There is a lot of software online and on modern smart phones that'll do sinewave's and whatnot. Audacity is one and Soundcard scope is worth a look at, it's a simple PC scope, spectrum analyser, sig gen and it's free. A bit limited for RF work perhaps but useful non the less.
