ONCE ONLY.

My sob story is that I am jealous of your EDC standard, so I went to search for one. I found a Valhalla 2701C-LNF "for repair" on fleabay instead.

Schematics for the 2701C exist, but not for the "low noise floor" variant (manufacture is still around but doesn't have schematics for LNF either). Since I'm a complete noob, repairing this is a continuing effort....

More change spent in parts than I care to admit later and I'm no closer to a working DC standard and just reminded that I'm jealous of your lab.

 So... share some of your lab with this noob!

Count me in Dave, I would like another scope for my channel, always good to have alternatives to use for situations when one scope isnt enough, its for the YouTube public good.

For a sob story, how about my entire house, garage etc being flooded by sea water in a storm on 5th January, you can see this on my YT channel, 2 months later the house hasn’t been touched yet, it’s uninhabitable, waiting for insurance to be happy with a builder quote.

AND to top it off a few weeks ago (whilst we are living in a garage which is still damaged), my wife broke her ankle, and has to hobble around on crutches on gravel and in the garage, where whatever was salvageable after the flood is crammed in, leaving little room to move about.

In spite of this rather hectic time, I am still making videos for my YT channel, not as many as I was prior to the flood, but I’m still managing a couple a week.

Really the flood was a bit of a ying and yang balance, I had the high from you featuring me in your guest videos, followed within days by the massive low of having my house flooded and losing 3/4 of our belongings.

I am happy to see this again this year. I am working on a new design for the USB Tester and the OLED backpack which provides a display for voltage and current without needing your own DMM and can data log. I have been a big fan of EEVBlog and learned so much from Dave over the years. This giveaway would be the missing piece to my workbench. Even though I am self thought I was able to learn enough to design a product that I sell on Tindie. This includes learning best practices and such. You can really learn a lot of Dave's teardowns!.

Thanks again for another year and my the odds ever be in your favor.

Oh I would like to use some actual scope for my projects. Been using some chinese garbage DDS120 copycat until now, which is not at all useful even for 8Mhz signals. Would love to work with both faster micros and audio more reliably finally. Being an undergrad physicist I sometimes wanna do experiments and might need to up the sampling rate. I mean look at this:

Im an electronic engineering student in South Africa.

Our local electronic shops love milking us price wise, so my current desk is comprised of the following :
A 350W PSU stripped from a PC, with 3.3, 5 and 12 V rails that i use to power various projects from tiny motors for a quad copter, to 12V fluid pumps for testing control algoritms on my arduino-on-a-breadboard.

If I need to test PWM, oscillator frequency (sometimes easily above 1MHz for RF and piezoelectric systems), I have to take my setup and emulate it in the university lab which has old, single channel,  CRT-style analog oscilloscopes. Having my own, capable scope would be great.

Thank you for all your videos

I want it to replace my old TDS220 with a modern low-end daily use scope. I'm still using this TDS220 as my goto standard for everyday use because of its simplicity and ease to use, but I'd like to replace it with a modern one. And I really don't want to replace it with one of these Chinese brand (Siglent, Rigol whatever) ones, because I don't like their design. And I'm keen on the internal function gen, in combination with the bode plot facility to run some tests on circuits that I've designed. My employer doesn't want to buy such new toys, so this is the only way for me to try to get my hands on one.

Gday Dave.  Definitely less than 50 post for me but mostly because I’m a beginner. Just about to get my first boards made, first time SMD soldering, first time Kicad user. Long time EEVblog watcher and long time AmpHour listener.

Many years ago I built a DP Scope SE which is a PIC based Scope. It’s a seriously sad excuse for a scope!

Hi Dave,

Im 21 from Melb, About 3 to 4 years ago I started watching your videos which inspired me to get into electronics. I have leant a huge amount since then, It has been great fun! This forum has been an amazing resource. I now have a humble electronics work bench and would love the edition of this great bit of kit.

Thanks

I'm about to launch a kickstarter campaign for a device that will extract more energy (like, 800%) from existing solar roadways and send the excess using ultrasonic beams, through the Cloud, to charge a cymbal-playing monkey doll. It will also have WiFi and squeeze juice. 

Everything's almost set, but I need a scope to test the voltage on the motor in the monkey. So... fingers crossed!  :D

No sad story justifying wanting one though, sorry. I'm celebrating my half century mark by starting a pro bachelor electronics + ict this fall, if it gets approved, and they'll probably have good connections to Keysight or other manufacturers to get a good deal for students anyway. At least I hope so, but in case not this is a backup! Save me some money to buy beers, err parts for project tasks  >:D

@Sob story - I still don't have a signal-gen...  but I bet some aspiring student doesn't even have an old scope - your personal pick should better go to such a person instead of me  :-+

Maybe it sounds cheesy but I will share it anyway (since it's the truth)
I am taking the plunge and I have decided to start a full-time freelance business but unfortunately my financial situation isn't going so well at the moment.
Since my field is mainly developing Class-D power amplifiers and switching power supplies, I could really use a 100MHz (or better) scope with 4 channels.
Unfortunately these are not cheap, so many of my projects are on hold for the moment which also means that development and sales are on hold as well.
Needless to say that this would help me tremendously.

Very generous of you Dave, as always!
You could also just sell these for a fair amount on ebay instead.

Interesting, I do not have many posts on the forum. I'd like to have an oscilloscope to learn more about electronics. Unfortunately the equipment costs a lot and I can not afford it.
Although I studied computer science, I'm becoming more and more interested in electronics. Perhaps I chose the wrong path.  :palm:

Slowly I'm creating a small set of tools, I recently bought a real (but small) soldering station!
Next step is to buy a couple of multimeters!

For now my knowledge stops at the logical gates and something on the Opamps. :'(

Hi David Lyears,

I am studying B.Tech in ECE pre-final years, also I am doing repairing electronics item such as Laptop, TV, inverter, power supply etc.

So I really need the Oscilloscope because actually, I don't have enough money to buy Oscilloscope and during repairing time  I need to measure waveform and frequency.

Please give me The Oscilloscope

When I was a child I opened up a hameg scope and played around with the potentiometers inside. 
I still have the scope, but I need another one (and a function gen ofc.) to calibrate it. I wish this was a joke, it is not but in my defense I can say that I was just 12 years old at the time.

DSOX1102G is a 2 Analog + 1 Digital channel scope.  Digital input can be used in serial decode and to probe digital signal, it can trigger, etc etc.  It is a nice feature not available on any 2-channel entry level scope.

I hacked my EDUX1002G to DSOX1102G so I would like to compare performance of hacked vs unhacked scope.  I am also pushing the hacked EDUX1102G to 200MHz and beyond and the original DSOX1102G can be an excellent addition to my hacking bench.  As officially my unit is an EDUX1000 scope, I cannot request trial CAN and LIN serial decode options.

Don't have any scope at home, given my interests in Vintage computers and Power Electronics this is a big problem.
What scopes I do have access to at TAFE, I can't use due to obvious safety issues with high voltages or 30 year old PSUs.

But there is a 2CH scope on the picture. I think the one to win is a 2CH?

Sorry, I'm not that active on this forum. But sometimes I'm in here. Since I still have the problem, that I only have this 2CH 25 MHz scope which I could not hack to get 100 MHz (see link down below), I want to join here :-)

For Dave's pick rubric.

I am programmer, not electronic engineer. Electronics is my hobby for only last couple of years, and I really love to investigate this exciting world.
At the moment I am working on my first big (for me) project. This should be a "smart dummy load" for testing (diagnostics) ATX power supplies with MCU controlled changable loads for every power line, temperature controled fan, screen with info about all lines, blown fuse indication and other stuff I can manage with. This project is a challenge to my skills.

Oscilloscope should help me a lot with going deeper into electronics, DSO138 does not satisfy my needs anymore.
If I could win this scope I'd be sooo happy.

P.S. Good news! This giveaway pushed me to finally register!

 I am trying to come back to EE after starting many years back and then switching to another career which is not as good as I expected to be. I need a change of career to give my special needs child a better future but it is hard with expenses. This oscilloscope would help me greatly to jump ahead into starting to learn by myself until I can enroll next semester if everything goes well. Thanks for the opportunity. God bless. :)

I only have 13 posts here, but I'll try my luck anyway.

I'm studying media technology in Germany with a focus on audio technology and production. I am very grateful for my universitys environment and all the stuff that we learn and try out. At the moment I am designing a speaker controller / router that manages audio inputs, outputs, volume, routing, will have a remote control and several more features. If the prototype für my own stereo setup works, it will eventually be scaled up to control the 35 speakers of our state of the art 3D audio dome.

I could really use a good scope to be able to measure very precisely and productively for working on my projects in the future.

Thanks for your attention,
adrian :)

Hi Dave. Remember me? I suggested the "reply" button on every post.
Anyway, I'm a self-taught tinkerer, working on a camper van with an auxiliary power system (solar+batteries+inverter). I'm going to have a digital monitoring system with various sensors and touchscreens to graph data. There will also be a CAN bus interface to tap into vehicle telemetry. I am documenting all my findings, to share with others on the internet in the open source spirit. I've been using an ancient single channel CRO. I could really use a more modern scope with better bandwidth, another channel and some digital functions, but it's currently out of my reach. Please consider me in your giveaway. Cheers.

Jeesh, Look at all the pages to read through  |O (poor Dave)

I know, I'm currently (maybe by this time when this post gets noticed) under 50 posts for sure, but that's because I tend to make long posts  :blah:.

Anyway, I'm finishing my masters, and I Want to get my project done! I'm working on a Bio-Impedance measurement frontend (interesting stuff actually).

That's my first time I've seriously tackled analog electronics. (usually doing PCB design of digital circuitry).
I would love to validate and modify my project from home, rather than hassling around different buildings in the university (time consuming) and having my own oscilloscope at home would help me a lot to finally finish this frikin project... aaand effectively experiment with other ideas.

enough of sobbing, gonna go and check out Wave18. (Aaah, Estonia is Not in the list! Crap :( )



must... assemble.... my.... home... lab. And oscilloscope is one of the hardest things to acquire.

Also, Dave, to use an ANA/VNA (Network analyzer) you have to have a cal kit. If not, you wouldn't know if your measurements are mumbo jumbo or not. :)

I don't know that my half-dozen posts could be considered "spectacularly valuable", but I've certainly been lurking around this forum longer than I've been active here. Since value is a relative concept, I'll gingerly toss my hat into the prospective ring as well-- a slightly used 100MHz oscilloscope would be very useful around here.

Alas <50 posts. Not sure if still eligible to be considered for the warm fuzzy/sob story prize.

My story: Always been interested in taking things apart, fixing/hacking them, engineering & physics etc. Had to abandon school prematurely at 15 after a lifetime of poor health (still 'waiting' for a proper diagnosis), no great loss - the promised electronics & pneumatics never materialised. 24 years later, I'm always looking for things to occupy my time that are compatible with limited & rapidly declining physical & cognitive abilities. Last year I discovered EEVBlog and immediately became hooked. Rekindled a lifelong interest in electronics. Vowed to fix a bricked router & succeeded.

Funny story: While fixing the aforementioned router, arm holding the soldering iron was afflicted by a muscle spasm which resulted in the other hand being stabbed with a very hot soldering iron. Naturally its reflex action was to recoil away from the unwelcome thermal stimulation. Unfortunately it was holding a pair of very sharp needle-pointed tweezers, which stabbed me in the abdomen. :palm: Newton's third law in action? Murphy's?

Viva le EEVBlog!

I was forced to retire on disability and I am home-bound. I took up electronics, to try to keep my mind going. I can't afford to just go out and buy new equipment. I would not normally reveal such information, but I am hopeful I might qualify as the warm-fuzzies guy.

My own creations include, in small part:
Many Unique Microchip Controller Boards
DIY Reflow Oven
Logic Tester
Crystal Oscillator Tester
PWM Motor Controller
Op Amp Tester
And many, many more.

I have learned Eagle and Kicad. I create proper boards and have them manufactured. I greatly enjoy this process.

I am learning tons. A digital scope package would take me to the next level! Thanks!

Post by: SirAlucard on March 03, 2018, 06:40:48 am
Dave, Here's hoping you read through every single sob story, and if you do, you are a greater man than most. Also, I realize I don't have more than 50 posts as of the time of this posting, but I joined with the sole intention of becoming part of this great community. Soon enough that post count will climb, and with it my knowledge will grow. So I hope you don't mind that my post count is a bit low.

To start things off, a story, of 2 year old me. When I was a young lad I too had an odd knack for taking things apart and seeing what made them tick. My mother swears to this day that when I was 2, I took apart an old toy radio of mine that didn't work, did something inside, put it back together and whala it started working again. Whether or not it's true is solely on her, as I don't really remember that. What I do remember is an old Electric Organ my father brought home one day that he found in the trash. Needless to say it was in the trash for a reason, it didn't work. At the time I had to be 4 or 5 years old. I just know I wasn't in school yet. My mother wanted to get rid of the old thing since it didn't work, and I wanted to tinker around in the back of it. So she said why not, and let me do it. Figuring I'd break it more and we'd have to throw it out. I think there may have been some wires that were loose back there or something, I don't remember what I did, but I told my mother that it was fixed, and she wanted to wait till my father got home to plug it in. He did, and sure enough the thing turned on and actually played.

Now come to the present and I'm about 30 years old. My whole life I've been tinkering with electronics. Mostly just taking stuff apart to see what was inside, without actually knowing how anything worked. I found myself mostly on the computer Hardware side of things. As repairing computers came naturally. However, computer's don't really challenge me anymore, as for the most part it's all module, and hard to mess up an installation. That's where electrical engineering comes into play. I've always had an interest in it, just never dived right in. Well I'm already off the diving board, I'm setting up a small little lab in the garage and already started working on repairing some of the projects that I've had sitting around for way to long. I even posted about it on the "Whats your Work-Bench/lab look like?" (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/whats-your-work-benchlab-look-like-post-some-pictures-of-your-lab/msg1437807/#msg1437807) thread. However as you can see I don't have an Oscilloscope, surely this is a great shame.

 For the time being I can't really afford a digital scope, at least not anything that is reliable. I'm in the process of getting a DSO150 kit from BangGood, whenever that decides to show up and hoping I put it together perfectly, and all the parts come in good shape and it doesn't just fry on me after a week of use. It'll help me diagnose some issues that I'm having with a TI-83+ Calculator I'm trying to repair. (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/repair/ti-83-repair-powers-to-black-screen/) Granted it's up to the job, but realistically it's only a temporary solution. Now I'm sure there are tons of people here that would love a new scope to add to their collection, or even upgrade from a scope they currently have, but I need a scope to further my knowledge into the world of Electrical Engineering, as I know this will be the place to challenge my mind, and a place to further my career choices in. I'm definitely going to be doing this for a long long time. Hell I've already been doing it along time, and I don't see that changing any time soon. Some projects that it will come really useful in are in RC, Diagnostics for audio and repairs. I've got several repair projects that I need to diagnose the pwm signal of a mcu. I'm trying to develop my own video camera, and it'll really come in handy with that. There's no short of projects and an oscilloscope would be used regularly.

Lastly I'd like to thank Dave himself for hosting such an amazing community, your blogs are wonderful, I find myself up late at night watching them. I've been watching for a while, at least a couple years and don't know why I didn't do it sooner, but recently decided to join up in the community. So thank you for sharing your knowledge with everyone, and thank you for having a great giveaway like this!

Hi Dave,
Eddie Aho here with Analog :)
I am going to start posting on YouTube - maybe by the time you read this - I’ll have some up for you to see.  I’ve been in the industry a long time and hope to rebuild an old lab so that I can start a successful home business.  I’m determined to make lots of videos and build a following.

I have recently found you and have already watched and ‘liked’ many of your videos.  You are so talented and great with the camera.  I had plans to do this and then when I saw your videos - at first I started to wonder how I could possibly do what you do - and then I realized I can’t - but that’s OK.

It would be great to win something from you that I could show in my videos in the background...it would be a kind of trademark gift from Dave.

See you on your next video,

Eddie

I would like to nominate Tony, cuz he blew up his scope  :-BROKE, but Tony may not be a contributing member here. He is, however, a contributing member of the youtube community and brings a theatrical element to his informative videos, which I have enjoyed.

If I win, I would use the winnings to help Tony out and I am sure that benefit would ultimately reach a larger audience.

My current oscilloscope is an old analog storage Tektronix T912. Don't get me wrong, it still works and I do not want to win Daves warm feelings contest at all, others deserve it way more than I am.
Just wanted to enter the regular forum member contest and tell you guys that these old cathode ray scope really aren't all that bad (especially if it isn't quite as bad as mine is.

Again, I do not want to enter Daves pick contest as I could totally afford a much better scope (300-500$) if I really wanted to.

I know, I have no chance of winning but hey, its worth trying.

I gave my 5000 series Rigol to my little nephew to help his way in electronic.
And now, I use an old analoge 20Mhz Lucky Goldstar oscilloscope which I rescued in a dumster dive.

To be honest, I'm not that in need of the scope, but I would surly appreciate it.

I'm a student on a co-op whose trying to become an expert in switched mode power conversion, primarily with photovoltaics. Ive built a basic MPPT system prototype while i was still at school on campus using campus supplies and oscilloscopes but now im on a co-op for 6 months, and still trying to make progress.

I am planning on buying the rigol  in a few months after I've saved enough money but winning this scope would  mean that instead of buying the rigol scope i could use the money get the bench supply :D.

I included a link that shows a little bit of my previous work below. I'm working with an old analog o-scope currently.  It would be nice to own a usb capable scope for design and testing purposes for my little solar DC-DC research projects! Eventually i want to master sychronous bidirectional conversion but my current goal for the next couple months is to just get a really high quality robust 200W rated buck converter.

I would love winning this scope. I currently use a Hameg HM207 10 MHz scope from the early seventies that doesn't really fit my purposes anymore.
Originally I only repaired stuff, mostly older high-end professional audio equipment like mixers, (wireless) microphones etc. but I recently started doing some stuff on my own:
For a project at university I successfully designed (well, a lot was taken from datasheets / app notes) two circuits and layouted PCBs:

-An "audio" ADC (with DC support) hat for the Raspberry Pi based on the TI PCM4202 for analog data-logging at high voltage resolution
-A AVR-based PID temperature controller with PT100 temperature measurement with precision greater than 0.1°C (if calibrated)
I'm currently in the progress of cleaning up the code/circuit to be able to publish it for others to rebuild.

For that my Hameg HM207 is just not good enough. I was able to borrow an really great HP 54616B and I noticed how bad my scope my really is :) Also because of your repair (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x8ii58-W_Y) I tried to pick one up at eBay, but without any success so far :(
I don't like buying cheap, non-reliable equipment and new good equipment is too expensive for me, so I hope I'll get an DSOX1102G :)

Post by: kolbep on March 03, 2018, 07:56:58 pm
Hi.
Commenting as I really need one of the scopes.

After having thousands of views of videos on my personal Youtube Channel, I decided to start a channel dedicated to Electronics, Called ShoutingElectronics (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcztKCvpGP0gueHncksq6kQ (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcztKCvpGP0gueHncksq6kQ)) or ShoutingElectronics.com

As you can see on one of my videos (Repair of a Geni OBY600U Fitting, Part 1), I am using a Rusted old 20Mhz Beckmann Industries CRT Scope, which does not have AC/DC Coupling Switches anymore (Had to remove them because I blew the switches by putting mains on the inputs, with a 1x Probe.

I am also using a cheapie multimeter with 2 red probes (which SeanB has already commented on). So just a smaller, more portable Scope will make it easier to find place on my bench for when I need it (instead of literally balancing the Beckmann Scope between 2 parts of the bench), and will allow me to go deeper, and really study what is happening with circuits.

And hey, if I do not win a scope, how about a consolation prize of a 121GW, or Brymen EEVBlog meter, or anything will be better than the multimeter I have at the moment....

Hi Dave! I am a hobbyist from Germany and Im 14 years old. I do electronics projects for 2 years now and I really enjoy it! But sadly I do not have the money to buy good Test gear. I saved my pocket money for a long time so that I could buy a good soldering station, the rest of my gear is mainly self made stuff like an old PC power supply or just pretty cheap like my multimeter . I would really like to win the oscilloscope so that I can exactly measure things and learn deeper into the functions of my circuits. Thank you for reading this.

i know, i'm not really supporter here on the forum, just a lurker, i found a lot of good information in this forum.
I learn a lot of stuff watching your video and i see almost all of them :)
I'm from "Museo dell'informatica Funzionante" a museusm of computer in italy where you can always use all the computer, or at least we try, some computers need to much power for a home power line... :D We are all volunteers (like me i work as computer programmer, and us my vacation to contribute to the museum) and the only income are from donation. To repair computer we have two old analog oscilloscope, and for now we could not buy a better one. A digital oscilloscope with a function generator it would help us a lot.

I put some link about works:

Here we go, I'd like to be picked at random but I'll try to aim your soul...

DIYer for 15+ years, just about to become an EE, just my final project and I have my degree, if all goes well next month. I'm yet to get my first scope and with a few projects on the way is becoming time to get one... Don't cry for me, most of my projects where audio so I got away with my trusty sound card, but it just doesn't cut it any more.

Some of the projects! An SPL meter is one of them, few advance on that, all the components for the first prototype on the drawers, PCB designed, need to build one and start serious coding and debugging. An industrial automation system, this one is working for a year on the field, going to be my final project for the degree, fully open source, once finished all will be public for you to do whatever. More will be added to this device so it also will be on my lab needing scoping, and as industry device I use on the field myself, I could end developing quite a few perisphericals. Oh, and coming back to the SPL meter, the idea is to build a flexible measurement instrument on that platform, and I'd like to make it open source as well, at least part of it, as I won't be alone on that one.

So, if all this goes well it might end in a lot of projects, one of them is already a good part of my job (the industrial one) and for the other I have good expectatives but, as usual, trying to find time for it, hopefully as I finish the degree I can get to work on it.

Regards.

BTW, waiting for my 121GW, the BM235 feels alone and is asking for a bigger brother!

Had 3 years of electronics training from the late 70's and early 80's but have been away from the electronics hobby for several decades while working on my career.  Now being retired, getting back into it and only have the bare minimal of test equipment like a DVM.  Having a Keysight Oscilloscope would help me rebuild my test equipment setup while on an extremely limited income.

I'm just a DIY'er on a low budget, so decent scopes and stuff like that don't come so easy. Naturally, I'd be absolutely delighted to own something of this standard.

Please count me in...

Many thanks

I'd love a scope! Never had a real scope (built a DSO138 kit once). I'd use it for hobby audio projects (synth building) and fun, but also to start experimenting with digital stuff. Also might get inspired to work on more calculators. Thanks!

I'm an ee student and would love that scope like my own child. Someone might make better use of such a nice scope, but it would be a huge step up from grandpa's old automotive multimeter.

I'm not sure if I count as valuable, but I do have fifty meaningful posts and some optimism -- worst I can do is not get it.


I'm trying to build a mass spectrometer, so a modem DSO with math capability would be extremely useful.

My sob story entry:
I started college in 1994 for a Associates degree in electronics(AS EET). I have Narcolepsy(its not exactly like it is in the movies but still sucks balls) so it took a very very long time. Medical advances finally made life manageable enough to let me finish in 2015.(No one appreciates the theme song to Star Trek: Enterprise more than me, lol) Anyhow, I'm still in school, this time learning 3D printing and design. I hope to wrap it all up and make gadgets or something, maybe even a cubesat. I imagine myself maybe teaching to make ends meet, hopefully soon. I really need a modern oscilloscope to make a go at a side bushiness I'm trying to get going repairing electronics. I'm really doing the best I can, I don't have as may hours in the day as most people and worse the hours are rarely consecutive. This scope is just the kind of "ray of sunshine" I could use these days, although "stuffs getting better, stuffs getting better all the time". I saw several good sob stories, I don't envy you you will have a tough choice on your hands.
Cheers!

Isn't SOB story to live in a PITA country with restrictive import taxation making it next to impossible to buy anything off ebay and the like for the little money you ppl do without having to spend a fortune? Second hand 10yo scopes cost as much as new ones elsewhere! I promise to behave if i win!

Can I join this giveaway event? I'm undergraduate student in Thailand. In my department, there are only 2-3 digital oscilloscopes. All of them are used in graduate program and advance lab. Thus, I can access only old analog oscilloscopes for my senior project. A digital oscilloscopes will help me develop my schematic and understand what is going on in easier ways. If I meet your giveaway criteria, please consider me one of your surplus digital oscilloscopes.
Many thanks for considering my request.

Hello Dave! What an honor it is to be read by you here on page 15. But what am I? Just a forum post, of course.

But behind it is an electrical engineering student from Germany. For my circumstances of course, I test and repair everything I get my hands on and every idea of a neat and handy device has to become reality on my desk. Unfortunately there are not many students here thinking the same way... i cant't get it but nevermind. As you can guess my equipment really moves at the lowest limit. Regarding something to call scope my pride and joy is one of the famous Toy-Scope JYE Tech DSO138. Far away even from half-serious low-cost equipment but identified not only once the bugs in my projects. So... i can't complain for the money, but I get to know it's limitations every time.

I currently have an amp from the 80's and a guitar radio transmitter on the table that need to be repaired. In addition, I am currently doing a feasibility study to see if I can develop my own sensors for a Lego robot. So your good Keysight scope is desperately needed! Without the right equipment working such this out is just annoying and time-consumin. How about an exchange with my JYE Tech DSO138 ;D ?


By the opportunity to get through to you here:
I just recently came across your videos on youtube, but man you got me at the first shot. Now i spend maybe 4 hours a day to catch up all the good stuff i missed. Really great work here from you!

My good old Tektronix 465 stoped working some time ago. I really loved that scope! Now I'm using a Sony Tektronix 335, but it's small display an I feel I could use something better.

PSE count me in :) For once in my life, I got to win something.

I was trying to access EEVblog today to update a thread with more data I've discovered, and something was wrong with the routing. Traceroutes and other diagnostics confirmed it wasn't on our end, and I had this awful, terrible, sickening feeling that something had gone horribly wrong (like Dave had been offered a job "too good to pass up") and our beloved EEVblog was gone for good.

SO happy to see my fears were unfounded.

Even if I don't win a scope (which I would give to my son who would benefit from having a scope to take with him to college in the next year or so), many thanks for all of your hard work, Dave. Quite the community you've built here!

Shameless plug: Yes, my son is a real human being and he would definitely benefit from having a scope at university. If one of those scopes finds its way to my home, it will help launch the education and career of a member of the next generation of Engineers. I can't imagine a more worthwhile place for a freebie scope to end up!

Thank you!

Hi, I've only been lurking this forum, registered now to give a shot at this opportunity. I'm a software guy interested in electronics, and maybe have sort of a project idea lately. Your videos and commentaries, as well as the forum, are a great source of information on electronics design, conveying all that experience, it's really an enabler.  So I was looking at scopes, I have a Tektronix 2213A but I might want to be able to look at digital timings and for that I'll need a digital scope. I liked these Keysights among the ones I looked at. Thanks!

I never won a prize at some contest. Maybe this will be My first (and the best)!?
Seriously, I never ever won anything at contest, lottery, etc.

I'm a first year MSc ECE student without a scope.
Without lab equipment, with DMMs only, hardly I could make some progress.
I have at least three projects in my head, some of them on paper, but without proper signal generator and scope those project ain't get alive.
Currently active project is an incandescent bulb dimmer build with MOSFET instead of SCR. Another project is optical sensing, then ultrasound measurement I never got the chance to experiment with, etc.

So, pretty please, maybe this time I could win something!  :D

Hey EEVblogers and Dave! :)

I just found out your video in a dire time of purchasing a oscilloscope, or saving up for one to be more specific. My current situation on my project is limited on the fact that I do not have an oscilloscope. My field mainly specializes in acoustics, resonance and oscillations of many sub-categories of topics, as you can see that the scope you have right there is PERFECT for my current situation I am in, that is a 'function generator' as well as a good amount of Mghz readings.

I have many project ideas that I want to do
1. that is programming an AI utilizing an Arduino mounted on a drone to control and function with a ultrasonic transducer that is reading its surroundings and moving on its own while avoiding obstacles.
2. create a flexible, wireless and modular tank resonance wire design to safely help the reduction of energy loss while transferring energy from point A to point B, this will help society to have a much more efficient wiring systems for energy savings
3. currently what I'm focused on going after, that is designing a modular resonance chamber and implement these in various aspects of day to day life technologies pertaining to computational computing and EMF emittances

As you can see Dave, all of these require obviously an oscilloscope, which I do not have sadly... If I am chosen I'm sure your 'sob story' pick would NOT be gone to waste and be put to good use and would get me off on a great start. I've stated before that I was saving up for an oscilloscope, but with all of these projects it require heavy test equipment and a lot of prototyping, it'd be great if I didn't have to go out and utilize a budget onto a decent oscilloscope to begin with, all thanks to this contest giveaway, and focus more on the test prototypes equipment I want to design.

Thank you Dave for this opportunity. Wish everyone good luck!
