You did rather well IMHO. In fact, a "you suck " is probably in order (~$25CAN/channel @100MHz/chan.).
Granted, although a modern DSO has more features, you did well.
For disclosure, I've both a Tek 2445B + Rigol DS1054Z that's been unlocked. Guess which gets used the most? That said, I won't give up my Tek 2445B any time soon (call it whatever you want, but I wouldn't shine away from the term "nostalgic gear acquisition syndrome (aka NGAS)"). The adverts of the time were more interesting to me than a Playboy or other pornographic magazine at the time.
Yeah, I know... What a shame. It would definitely explain why I only have lab assistants though (aka cats) rather than actual kids. On the plus side, no alimony or child support, so it can't be all bad.
Yeah, huh? I paid somewhere north of $100/channel for mine. (Granted this was about 12 or so years ago, though.)
I can relate. Now if I could just get the damned lab 'assistants' (note quotation marks) to stay
OFF the bench and racks, and that items thereon are
NOT toys to be batted about, chewed upon, knocked on the floor and absconded with (or various combinations thereof...
), life would be easier still. I'm still missing a full sized Soldapullt that is no doubt under or behind something in an obscure place in the house.
