I've been looking for any data folks might have on the typical
frequencies an avionics package might experience in a small rocket. I
suspect though it is highly variable to the construction of the vehicle
and mounting. Yeah, it may not matter but I still can be interested in
it :)

After seeing Wallops shaker tables we went back to the school I was teaching at and built a mechanical analog from a variable speed motor, cam and a spring loaded platform. Mount the electronics on the platform, turn on the motor and vary the speed and tension on spring holding mount to cam accordingly. Somewhat single frequency from our accelerometer tests but was very good for functionally simulating a suborbital flight. Vibration issues were not a problem with those payloads; student overconfidence, overpromising and changing code at the last minute though. ;)
