All,
I'm in the position to ask work for a scope, and I'm curious what people think.
Should I get the Rigol DS2072 now, or wait until October or so when the DS200A's (Revision 2 of the hardware) are available (in the states)? I've looked at the thread in the forums about it, and it seems the biggest change is the addition of the 50R termination, and a header for an LA (though Rigol claims they have no plans for having a DS2000 with an LA at this time). The 50R termination would be nice, but I have a 50R passthru terminator, so it's not critical. The noise floor looks pretty much identical.
I do plan to hack the scope to 200mhz using the methods elsewhere on the forums.
What are people's thoughts?
