Damn, damn, damn - I forgot to enter today's Australia's competition.
Argh!
@Brumby
I take it you were not a "Winner, winner - chicken dinner" from last week?
Maybe winning one this week will overcome the cold with all the endorphins and whatever flowing through your body!
Good luck anyway!
Oh crap.
I just read the question properly.
I answered for the wrong scope - and the answers were not the same.
I can see myself setting up a Lissajous figure and leaving it run. Makes a bench look interesting to an outsider...
How come I didn't win one yet?
First of all: Congratulations!
IIRC: The scopes will be shipped after the sweepstakes.
(Probably in one big bunch, all won scopes at once.)
They will be shipped from the factory in Taiwan. (Or this time from China?)
This year there is something different:
This year is no distributor asked. It seems, the scopes will be send to the
regional KS offices and from there to the winner.
The last part (KS office -> Winner) should give a message with tracking
information for you.
Direct shipment from the factory to the winner (with message about tracking
information) is a possible solution, too.
But this would be bad for winners in the EU: In this case occurs Import Tax.
Anyways: No reason to worry. It is simply too early at this time.
My guess: Your scope arrives in the second week of April.
I'm glad I got up the nerve to ask because I didn't want to sound like I was annoyed and it's easy to misinterpret the tone of people's messages online.
And: No, you are not annoying. You be excited about your new oscilloscope and it is hard for you to wait for the arrival of it.
That should be very easy understandable for everyone...
To Daniel and Keysight - thank you for the opportunity to participate.
