Just to throw another good scope in the mix is the Siglent 1202X-E for $380. 2 channels, 200MHz all the bells and whistles come unlocked, no hacking necessary. A great scope, I love it.

I have seen on youtube where some have flashed the software in some of the scopes and other devices to raise them up to higher levels.? There may or may not be some small components in them that limit the bandwidth so you may not be able to get the traces to show a true waveform at the higher frequency.
At the least you would have o get better probes for the scope.
The Hanteck 200 mhz scope I have does not seem to do the XY patterns very well.? I have to drop back to my old Tectronic analog to do that.? Maybe a better quality digital scope will do the XY patterns better than my inexpensive Hanteck

I got my Rigol on

They have newer ones
now, better, but more $.
I like it, but for the
price I think the Hantek 200 MHZ is a better deal, especially
since Jack likes his.
Circuit Specialties
has sales once in a while, I got 15% off my Spectrum Analyzer
from them.
I had problems with
the Hantek USB scopes, did not like them.?? I would never buy
a PC connected scope again.
I seldom use more than
2 channels?
The Rigol is actually
TOO SMALL.? Too many features and screen is small, I can't see
all the stuff.
Strange, my Rigol? has
1 flaky probe already, AND the Ground Alligators take BIG
Muscle to open!
They sure have a real
spring in there!? They surprise me every time I clip.
