What is the best oscilloscope under $400?
If buying new the Rigol DS1054Z end of story. $375 from tequipment.net with free shipping (using the EEVblog discount code). 4 Channels 50Mhz 1 GS/S but "user" upgradable to 100MHz.
There is a 100 page thread here on the forums about it please read this and use google before asking further questions because they have been answered many times.
Oh and check out Daves videos on it as well.
Good luck on the "free shipping" if you don't live in the "contiguous United States"
Alaska,Hawaii,& Puerto Rico need not apply!
If you live in Oz,a DS1054Z is around
$A633 (approx.US$456),including GST,before it leaves the supplier-----plus not inconsiderable freight costs if you don't live next door to Emona!
Actually,that isn't all that bad,as the "special" Tequipment price translates to about
$A520 before freight!
Australians were horribly spoilt for imported test equipment in the halcyon days of exchange rates of US$1.30 to the
$A!.00.
They were lousy days for people in the USA,though!
