So far, none of the DS1052E internals I've seen have the 2nd switching relay in the front-end, which the 1102E seem to have.

rf-loop:
Really interesting! Lot of thanks.

So, maybe differencies are revision differencies. Not differencies between models.

Weeeery interesting........


BTW:

somebody may see this useful, I do not remeber where I find this (maybe) interesting document:

Thanks, Dynomo!  That eliminates the only hardware-specific difference I was aware of.  Since the firmware is identical, it's looking like there may be no hardware differences.

Well, see ATTEN (now also Siglent).  That's exactly what they do.  The insides are like a photocopy of the Rigol's.  Some people think that Rigol manufactures them for ATTEN, but they actually do the cloning themselves.  And yes, that's theft of IP, and copyright infringement.  And yes, that's China.

(But, no, that's not what anyone here was talking about.  Just making up fake labels for real Rigol scopes.)

I am positive that if you go onto the Rigol website you will see ATTEN scopes for sale too. Well at least the last time I went on you could...

Simon:
I wonder how long it is before people start selling DS1102E/D labels for rebadging DS1052E/D units, for sure they won't be for sale for long but I bet someone tries. I'm in a quandry myself as I'll be using mine at work soon or rather our clients will be using it so I don't know how to explain away the fact that I have modded it  ;D
