My point was that most PC-based scopes have relatively low cutoff frequencies (e.g., 20MHz) but can cost over $100. My point is that, if you're going to buy a scope, consider going "all in" and get one that will cover all of your scope needs. The marginal cost isn't that great when you consider it will last for years.

I got the Hantek DSO5202P over a year ago for $284.05 (shipped) from CircuitSpecialists with a fabulous (?) free 10-unit set of Chinese pliers that look like they more or less work.
What the difference is between these two 'scopes is I can't really tell, even with the minimally-useful aid of the Hantek page.
As it turned out, aside from checking it out and calibrating it, I've never used it.? Not once.? Nor the pliers, come to that.
But isn't the OP asking about a different type of USB-connected 'scope?
