I'll give it a go, out of interest. It's not really a problem though. It was more of an observation, & confused me a bit when it first happened. I thought Windows had crashed on my pc ;D If I want to take screenshots of the pulse, I can just use channels 2 or 3. For anything else, all channels seem OK. |

Maybe if it was in a metal enclosure RFI can be contained. Hopefully I’ll get some chance to make some tests in a day or two when we return to base. --- End quote --- I tried putting the pulse gen close to the dongle. It was less than a centimetre before it blocked the signal, so I dont think it's being unshielded that's causing it. Perhaps it's something like the PCB track lengths being resonant at 2.4GHz on channels 1 & 4 inside the scope that's amplifying the signal? :-// Did Dave ever do a teardown of this scope? Be interesting to see where the channel inputs go. |

Not seeing a problem here. :-// 2 captures attached, one from member hendorogs SSA3075X-R with RF loop around the USB-B power input into a 50 Ohm terminated Bodnar pulser. Analyzer trace setting = Peak Max hold Preamp ON showed no additional info so was left OFF. SDS1104X-E capture from webserver via WiFi dongle and LAN to PC. DSO ~8m from WiFi access point. Ubiquity airCube router https://store.ui.com/us/en/products/acb-ac Scope continues to operate remotely as normal with little/no latency. |

Thanks for trying it out yourself. Did you try unterminated in channel 1? That was the worst case for me. It blocked the signal 100% of the time. Channel 4 was intermittent, sometimes OK, sometimes blocked. Using the 50 Ohm termination helped. Channel 1 then became intermittent & channel 4 worked for most of the time. |
