Yes, I got the Siglent SA, and sold the old Rigol on eBay.

What a difference.? So Rigol and Siglent are at the top of my list.

And remember the 2 day discounts by Circuit Specialists, usually 15% can be significant on a big purchase.

I would go for a bigger screen the on the Rigol scope.

And yes, the 100 MHz upgrade on the internet worked perfectly.

I am glad they are now just unlocking things.? Hiding features for Ransom seems kind of counter productive

to good bossiness practices?

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.

Eevblog did a review about a year ago,?

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 eBay, new just a few hours.? DS1054 for about $370.? Had to do the 100MHZ operation.

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.
