I am thinking about buying this scope and was impressed by what all it can do, I like the fact that it also works like a spectrium analyzer. I knkw it is limited as far a bandwidth is concerned but for what I will use it for, mainly hf frequencys on my test bench, it should be ok. I am looking for you guys thoughts as I have a high respect for your ideas and work. thank you for any replies. bob WB7DMX

bob: Which scope are you referring to? It is not obvious from your email.

Looks like a useful piece of equipment - if you already have a computer on your workbench, along with the space for it. It's comparable to the stand-alone Tektronix TDS 210, which was introduced 10 to 12 years ago, and was recently discontinued. That originally sold for about $1,800, but recent close-outs were in the $800 range. Occasionally, you can get them for about $600 on Ebay. They're light, compact and accurate. See: http://www.hep.yorku.ca/menary/courses/phys3050/lab_manual/TDS200_scopes.pdf If you don't already have a workbench computer, the TDS210 would be a good alternative, although it won't do spectrum analysis..
