Very entertaining. The best horse race is one in which you have no horse.

Funniest part is those saying "I have no use for such a good scope, it can go to someone else."
What, is this Saints Week or something? You guys actually kicked your Test Equipment Addiction somehow?

Well, for some, the 500MHz Tek may be of great use, but we may already have better than the Rigol. For others, the Tek may be far too much scope, but they could put the Rigol to good use.

Personally, I'm in the former camp. (As I already have a 200MHz Tek MSO2024B as a daily driver, so I'd rather see someone else make use of the Rigol. The TDS754C, on the other hand, I could put to really good use, as my highest bandwidth scope is an analog 400MHz Tek.)
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic; e.g., Cheez Whiz, Hot Dogs and RF.

It is done. Putting the video together now......

I tried my best to do this is a reasonable way. Finally was able to take a brief moment from work and do it. Look forward to hearing from the winners.

It was great to see the names go into the hat and for the draw.  I just needed you to have another 15 scopes to give away...

Congratulations to the winners!

It's been a fun exercise and just being a part of it has been a reward in itself.


Another 'Well Done!' to Keysight for their competition and the handling of it - which made all this possible.

On the flip side, if the drawing was sorted little-endian, you'd have won! XD

Also, I'm totally stoked to have won! This is the first time I think I've ever won a raffle or drawing. Totally cool! I'll post some pictures of my new Tek when she arrives and gets settled in. :-}

Congrats to whomever gets the Rigol as well!
