OWON SDS1102 low end 100Mhz oscilloscope
maxwell3e10:
I got a XDS3062A from that sale on Arrow and have been pretty happy with it. It does have a few specific bugs:
When transferring data from scope to computer every millionths point is corrupted
When one channel is set to inverted and then turned off, the other channel is messed up when 1 GHz sampling rate is used
Large sharp square pulses have a 2% overshoot that decays over 2 usec.
Otherwise, I love the large crisp display, 12 bit resolution, low input noise, decent FFT. It doesn't feel like a low cost scope.
It would be nice to have more waveform measurements, such as standard deviation, and have measurements done on full waveform, but many other brands don't do it right either. Also decoding was not included, but it did come with a build-in function generator (pretty useful) and a multimeter (rather useless).

It shouldn't feel like a low cost scope at £550 especially considering you get only 2 channels at 70Mhz for that money.
radiolistener:
it looks like very outdated scope. Today's oscilloscope for novice needs at least 24 megapoints memory.
And I think it's better to look for 2 GS or above with high res display, because 1 GS is outdated technology.
These days, 10 k memory is too small even for pocket multimeter.
Probably it produce a lot of aliasing at slow horizontal resolution. It will be confusing for newbies.

I only paid $200 for it on sale, but even at the regular price of around $400 it is a good deal since any other high-resolution low input noise scope (like R&S) are well over $1000.
Kosmic:
Arrow should do those sales more often. I would definitely spend a lot more ;D
