Default Hantek

A mate wants to replace his aging Tek DSO with a cheap 'n cheerful
Chinese jobbie, like this:

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Hantek-D...AOSwc6paDVH d

I have a Rigol DS1054z and am very pleased with it, but his budget
doesn't stretch that far. The Hantek looks decent enough and has Aussie
distribution.

Anyone have experience with the brand?

Siglent?

Etc?

I bought a Hantek a few years back. Was going to go with a Rigol, but
overheard a couple of men at a hamfest talking scopes and they said the
Hantek was a better scope. a friend bought one a year or so later. I
think the Hantek is along the same line as the Rigol.

There are some hacks on youtube to extend the frequency ranges of the
scopes. I have not tried any of them It could be the scopes need some
componet changes to make use of the extended bandwidth. I don't know.

I think you'd best delete that comment before JL reads it.

"When constituencies are small their elected representatives must concern themselves with
the local interests of their constituents. When political representatives are distant and
faceless, on the other hand, and represent vast numbers of unknown constituents, they
represent not their constituents, but special interest groups whose lobbyists are numerous
and ever present. Typically in Europe a technocrat is an ex-politician or a civil servant.
He is unelected, virtually impossible to dislodge during his term of employment and has
been granted extensive executive and even legislative power without popular mandate and
without being directly answerable to the people whose interests he falsely purports to
represent."

- Sir James Goldsmith (Member of the European Parliament) 1933 - 1997

I don't think JL has issues with Rigol vs whatever. I have a Rigol DS1054Z and have hacked it to turn on all the options. It reports itself as a DS1104Z (100 MHz version). The case does not need to be opened so the tamper seal is intact. It's a lot of scope for $350. Display freeze between triggers is very helpful when sorting out serial data transfers. Its decoding of the serial stream is also useful.

And then there's the gold standard of digital scopes.
The HP infinium.
I have one in my shop I acquired for next to nothing.
