Keysight 6000X 6Ghz Voting Is Live vote for Carlos A.

[MarvinTheMartian]

At this point, I doubt anyone would question my commitment to winning the Test To Impress contest. My sisters offered to spread the word via a big Cheerleading and Dance competition that they organize and run in London. The asked if I could give them some material to engage the young people and get them to vote all weekend. There will be a lot of people there and they are the leaders, highly respected. Let's see what happens when a large (arena venue) captive and connected audience is asked to vote.

Yes, was my answer.

Good luck Carlos and hoping this gives you a great boost in votes for the final push.

Backing you in spirit  ,  if not in votes (not on FB)

I appreciate the support more than you may know. The wild and crazy nature of this is rough. It feels good to have support. Campaigning for votes is very foreign to me. Trying not to fatigue everyone, but also trying to maximize my chances. It's harder than it looks.

I don't doubt it!   

It's a really fine line to tread before people start to get irritated.

Did Carlos sockpuppet just come in here and claim that Macbeth is a racist? - the ultimate shit virtue signalling. It just so happens that Macbeth also has a dirty unshaved beard right now, and doesn't take shit post racist accusations well. Can the shitposter tell me what race I am too?

Sorry Carlos, but all your videos, sockpuppets and "friends" really make you out to be nothing more than self-obsessed narcissist.

I actually feel dirty engaging with you at all. You are now on the same level as Bob Roohparvar.

ok

I don`t understand why are you attacking him?

I am not a media guru but I like this video much better then the first. Not because of the contents but the energy it radiates. It is positive while the first one was kinda more depressing. Anyway keep going Carlos, stay in the race, you started it you are gonna finish it and my plee to Keysight: give Carlos a 6000X to review! Just like Dave gets scopes to review  i think a lot of people here would like to see what such a scope can do.

NOTE: I'm going through this thread and removing the abuse and arguments. Please keep it civil and on-topic.

Dave, I just locked it, obviously unlock it if you wish but this last page does not seem to have much to do with the scope. I think trouble starts on the page before this. Just reading through myself.

[EEVblog]

To be fair, I seem to recall you would give away all your old scopes and stuff as prizes if you did win? Or did I just dream that? You see - that could get some traction...

Yes, Carlos has agreed to give away his old scopes.

I'll unlock it and we'll see if people will stay civilised.
This is a good catch-all thread for ongoing contest data and discussion of the ultimate winner.

Carlos, for whatever it's worth, ever since I started reading this thread (a few days ago), you've been getting mine (and my gf's) 3 daily votes. I had to resurrect a fb account that I last used some years ago but hey... worthy cause . Maybe this weekend I can get you a few more peoples doing the same (my social networking mainly happens over beers or skype or both )
Mucha suerte ! (Best of luck)

Got my 3 votes and my wife´s 3 votes today...don´t give up.
Carlos,I don´t know you, and i probably will never see you face to face. It doesn´t matter...
The others must know that the point here is to do something good without asking for prizes!
I´m not worried if Carlos will give his used scopes away or not...I´ll let him with his conscience, and wondering if he´ll pay it forward for what we are doing.
Simple like that!

Boa sorte Carlos, (good luck)!

Confession time:
Seeing all these videos and the chance of winning an amazing scope it makes me sad I already got rid of my Siglent SDS2204. Here is how my video would go. Scene 1: me getting frustrated over the many things not working on the first new scope I got in 25 years. Scene 2: me in a public BBQ place setting the scope on fire. How many votes would that have gotten me?

Your support is worth a LOT. Please thank your GF on my behalf.

To all EEVBlog voters:
Getting votes from my family is good and of course I thank them for the support. It a really fantastic feeling to have the community support here were the details of the contest are known are known. The votes I get from this community are not blind votes, they are educated votes where you had to make a real decision to support one of the entries.

Thank you for choosing my entry and taking the time to vote daily. All of you. Win or lose, the community support is truly fantastic.

Over 20 years dealing with a huge variety of pro electronics, there is no small list of things I would love to BBQ.

Sometimes, just one silly design flaw that bugs you for enough time - invalidates all the great features.
