I'm fooling around with it, so far i like it :) I think I just need a flat cable to connect the BNC adapter to the AD2, otherwise the connector won't last long (hoping that the cable won't add too much crosstalk..). One thing I don't like is indeed the fragility of the stuff :wtf:. I don't know how they could use them in university labs and not having them broken the first day by the students. I should get the get the little Siglent today, will keep you posted. --- End quote --- balnazzar, FYI Probably you will be not able to compensate the Siglent probes with the "Digilent BNC" because the AD2 has relatively high input capacitance (~25pF). You will need probes with compensation range 17pf< and >30pF. I bought "Sumnacon 2 Pack P6100 100 MHz 600V" from Amazon for $12.99, they will compensate 10 - 35pF. |

On the front panel is a button to access the Zoom feature, clearly visible unless you need vision aids. |
