GW Instek spectrum analysers - review/teardown

Hello, is it possible that in the future, a review (or even a teardown) for a GW Instek budget spectrum analyser will be made available on blog ? I saw the Rigol DSA815 review and I was curious how Instek GSP-930 compares to it.

Well, these spectrum analyzers are totally different, the GW Instek is much more expensive...

You're right, only after I've posted I've noticed the price/features difference. Anyway, I've seen on the blog reviews for various GW Instek products and I thought that a SA might fit as well, if one can get a sample GSP-930.

The GW Instek GSP-730 (3GHz) costs 1000USD.

Has someone bought it? It is one of the cheapest spectrum analyzers.
But I have read that the Rigol DSA815 is better value for money. Even if it is only 1,5 GHz and it costs about 1300USD

The DSA815 has better sensitivity and resolution bandwidth. Well, Rigol product have always been bang per buck, while GW Instek is not a top brand, but still rather expensive and maybe more long lasting (
).
But the cheapest SA you can get is ATTEN AT5006 for 675USD.

It looks like a Hameg product from late 1980s
