True random number generators are essential for quantum key distribution systems. We investigate a quantum random number generator using homodyne detection. For this we compare measured data of anti-squeezed, squeezed and coherent beams, and analyze the randomness of the signals with various standardized test suits. In addition, we exploit the continuous variable nature of the states to extract more bits per measurement value than in usually used single photon counting methods.
