I am looking for a simple tool that I can monitor available bandwidth on my 3 different ISPs in real time. Not what is being used, but what is available…like a speed test, but one that can show historical data. I have PRTG but that shows what is being used. I also do not want it to constant speed tests, that would take up everything I have. I know I could just as easily do a spreadsheet and fill it in. Anyone maybe have a Powershell script that would do this, do a speed test and then fill in results on a spreadsheet?

So you want the available bandwidth to be monitored in “real time”, but you don’t want constant speed tests to happen. Then you mention a script doing a speed test.
You’re gonna have to choose: Either you run some kind of Speedtest on a regular basis, which will give you somewhat “real-time” results, or you don’t do it, and you don’t have real-time data as a result.
A very quick google search brought up this power shell script, that even formats the results for PRTG:
