Some DSO's offer zero additional features as their design and HW won't support such. Some hacks are of officially offered options while others (BW normally) are to the top model in a range. When fully informed model creep beyond budget is not necessary unless you are of a mind to quit all your other scopes to move up a bracket or 2 where the choice and feature sets push into another level of capability. First you need decide on the feature set required and a final max budget you can stretch to. Eg, an hour long chat with mate Muttley the SDS2104X Plus and the current great bundle promo has turned his head and this instead of SDS1104X-E 200 MHz design is a 500 MHz design. Ask Josh whom posted earlier what he thinks of his SDS2104X Plus....he also has SDS1104X-E. |

And seems to work with DHO914 There we go from 600 now im heading to 1100AUD :palm: Probably worth it no? Considering more mods/hacks are around Rigols. --- End quote --- DHO900 is quite new/buggy in the LA area right now. It'll be fixed but bear that in mind. The price of the DHO900 is also very close to the Rigol MSO5000 which is a real beast. You can do a lot of LA stuff on the ordinary 'scope though. The 4-channel 'scope is like a 4-channel logic analyzer. You can do all your serial decoding, etc., on the 4 analog channels. That's usually enough for a quick job and you can pull out your Saleae when you need more. Anyway, it seems like you have your shortlist of devices and plenty to think about. Remember: Only you know your real budget and needs so only YOU can make the final decision. :-) (and also remember there's some salesmen on here with vested interests) |

OTOH you have nothing that's even close to the DHO800 in your lineup so you might not be doing people a favor. |

Customer always has last say when they have all the specs and facts they rightfully must have. When they return for successive purchases highly satisfied with their last it speaks clearer than some laddie online that sells his 54Z for latest greatest tablet scope only to return to the same brand and bellow how good it is. --- Quote ---OTOH you have nothing that's even close to the DHO800 in your lineup so you might not be doing people a favor. --- End quote --- Don't want it either as seen enough here that if Rigol were to come knocking again they would get the same answer as last time. Micsig too. |
