Are you going with the Hameg, Rigol or Agilent as a replacement?
I just looked at the waveace224 specs...they really are met by the DSOX2024, which is about $2700 USD list price vs $2600 USD list price for the 224.
Well, the Agilent has some bettter specs: larger screen, more memory, higher wfps, built in fg.
I should probably have ordered the DSOX2024 instead of the MSOX3024, but one time in my life I wanted not to buy the very bottom end of something or a long outdated model. I used the TDS210 for about 12 years so I feel I have tried the bottom.
