Doug,
That may work as long as the signal generator and the attenuators are
very well shielded.
If the brand name were Agilent (used to be HP), I would say that it
would be well shielded, but I don't know about a product from the "Siglent".
You may do better to invest in the Elecraft XG3. The calibration can be
automatic and painless when controlled by K3 Utility.

I have access to signal generator similar to this (

4mv. The calibration calls for 50uV of signal.
It looks like I could set the output to 40mv (I don't like working at the
bottom of the range), and then attenuate the output with 3 20db
attenudators (e.g.

in series which would reduce the voltage by a factor of 1000. Does this
sound like a viable plan?
