However i am undecided which model to get. I will get one of the lower bandwidth models and hack it to 200MHz, but which one?
up to now all can be hacked, however some need hardware modifications.
The P model is the cheapest but has the least memory.
right, there are even cheaper i think, DSO4102B which is 500MS/s but int he new enclosure. Now the question is,
is this only "like P model" PCB with slowed down ADC or diifferent ADC or what so ever ... so bit risk (but new enclosure, hmm)
When 40k memory is enought for you, then take it. However, note that later you will be unable to add memory.
For sure the 1M/2M slowing UI on B/BMV models, but sometimes it does not matter it UI is fast or slow, sometimes the bigger memory is what one need (when i need fast responding UI i can always switch to 4k or 40k on other models)
The BMV and
well yeah, 2M are alays better than 1M
MSO seem to be around the same price on aliexpress. I am undecided between these.
which one, MSO5074F(G) or MSO5062D? The MSO5xxxD they do have LA on separate PCB,
there are still lot of bugs. I would not recommend it to buy it if you wish use LA already yet.
The MSO574F(or FG) seems to be better, at least from what i saw is LA complettly changed.
I think they did it for reason (not only because they added DDS), however yu will need to wait
for an review.
From what i have read the MSO's LA seems to have problems. Is this any closer to being fixed?
as said above
I like the idea of having a LA built into the scope, but i do have cheap ebay USB logic analyser.
the question is what analyzer you have, when one of these salease/uesbee then of course is
that one included in HanTekway MSO much better. Not only because of sampling speed, but as
well trigger system (triggers, in 10mV steps trigger levels - something what saleae can't).
But when you got an proper usb LA, with trigger out and variable trigger levels, well then you
don't need any another one.
The BMV has bigger memory and a video help (although im not sure about how useful this is).
memory as said above, it is always good to have "more". Video, hmm, for sure one can use
that (not officialy enabled) enternet and watch some porn streamings, but hmm, today
everybody have faster smartphone than the Samsung SoC in BMV models. For teaching/help system, sure,
but not for anything else.
With a price difference of about £6 between the BM, BMV and the MSO in that order, i'm a little confused as to which one to get.
.. and it will be not easier, they released - or will soon - some other models (e.g. dso4102b), crazy Hantek people.
Btw, it is good idea to check other manifacturers, Sgilent SDS2xxx series or Rigol DS1xxxZ/DS2000 are definitely much better than Hantek models.
