Proving that some people are desperately looking for perceived issues with Rigol oscilloscopes.  ;D

They should have just bought the Siglent SDS1104X-E.  ;D


I'll see myself out.

Yep. It's obvious that if there's a table with a $350 Rigol + a $2000 Tek on it, I'm going to use the Tek. Why wouldn't I?  :-//

OTOH I can still do my job perfectly well if you take away the Tek.

(YMMV).

I'll spell it out for you: nobody wants to use the Rigols because the TBS2000 is just more convenient to use. Bigger screen, crisp traces and individual channel controls.

ntnico already admitted that the Siglent isn't a "real oscilloscope".  :popcorn:

So? If there were three cars in the company lot, two Ford Fiestas and a BMW, I bet the BMW would rack up more mileage.

That doesn't tell us anything at all about the Fiestas though. If you're just popping out for lunch they'll get you there and back just fine.
