I got mine from HappySeeds, I believe I was his first customer for this scope. Dave. |
| Simon:
Dave and myself bought from Happyseeds, I think many others did too. I haven't taken my scope completly to bits though just played around with the power supply board |

Apart from 25 vs 50mhz. --- End quote --- If you look into an alternative to Rigol then have a look at GW Instek oscilloscopes for quality. --- End quote --- I recently purchased a GW Instek GDS-1152A scope after spending quite a lot of time looking at the various options available to me. On the whole I'm happy. Plus points: + The 150Mhz version isn't that much more than the 60Mhz version (the 100Mhz Rigol is a lot more than the 50Mhz one) + I wanted as deep a memory as possible (2MPoint, compared to the Rigol with 1MPoint) + Better build quality than the Rigol (inside and out) + Brighter, better display than the Rigol + Lifetime warranty + Could buy from a reliable bricks and mortar retailer without paying a premium. + Seems much more stable and less buggy than Rigol Minus points: - Costs more - No push button knobs or light up buttons - Less triggering options (no slope, no alternate trigger, no rise and fall) - Zooming on signal interface isn't as nice (this is actually quite a big thing) - Writing to the SD memory card takes ages with full 2Mpoint memory depth - PC software is awful, really really bad (but the command set is full and works well) |
