Scope in a scope....
Didn't realise you had a new scope!
So how are you finding your new MSOX3104T scope compared to the old MSO6034?
Only just got it today ( Thanks Daniel/Keysight

) so a bit early to say, but initial impressions from some random playing....
Touchscreen looks very useful and definitely not a gimmick, even before considering the zone trigger - I already find myself using it for selections from longer menus, and ability to type labels, filenames etc. looks very handy. Seems fairly resistent to fingermarks.
Some useful new measure functions that I could really have used in the past, like pulse/edge counting.
Additional push functions on buttons are well thought out and very useful
The only downsides so far are :
Longer startup times ( approx 3x)
Front panels LEDs are possibly a bit too bright.
The lower screen resolution is noticeable but I think more of a cosmetic issue than anything serious
No LAN/VGA as standard, but compared to the scope cost it's a minimal extra cost, and there are cheaper homebrew options for LAN. Does seem a little penny-pinching not to include LAN as standard at least on the 3000 series.
Nothing so far has annnoyed me, even the unfamiliar panel layout, which is a good start.
