Oh, yeah, I haven't done self-cal for a while. I have no idea what the bandwidth configuration was last time I did it.  :-DD

AC RMS shouldn't be affected by offset though.

I set 32768 averages and it went down into the nV range. Rigol FTW!

Well it is logical...

Noise is going to average to zero AC. What is left is DC offset..

Auto cal should compensate zero offset but also vertical gain..
But these differences in channels are within normal spread. We are talking microvolts here...

In AC RMS mode?

Watch the diagram in the vertical menu and think about again...
