Keysights looking more and more attractive every day.
I seem to remember that people have gotten messed up autocal from DS1000Z, no?
Quote from: agdr on March 29, 2017, 01:46:20 amJust a reminder that the $2080 promo package deal on the RTB2004 *is* still going on at Newark, but apparently they can only sell into the USA market. They have a pricing mixup with their system though. I exchanged some PMs today with a fellow buying one and Rich from R&S. The website shows $2080 herehttp://www.newark.com/rohde-schwarz/rtb2k-com4/rtb2004-complete-bundle-300-mhz/dp/08AC3745?ost=rtb2004&categoryId=800000047008&searchView=table&iscrfnonsku=falseBut when you put it in your cart the number may flip to the $7900 (or $8600 I just learned) list price for the package. Or it may show the correct price in the cart and $8600 then show up in the email confirm. The system is grabbing from a database that doesn't have the promo pricing now that the deal is over at the other two US distributors. Rich says you have to call into Newark's sales department and talk to them to get it priced correctly, until they can get the database thing worked out.I ordered one from Newark yesterday, and as predicted, the email confirmation came back today with a total of $7920 (no sales tax here). After a bit of time on the phone with a confused Newark customer service rep, the order was cancelled/replaced and a confirmation came back with the correct price.He stated that they had these in stock; shipping date is supposed to be tomorrow.

As some might seem a little touchy about having some of their other problems pointed out I'll let you find them yourselves in the links provided.
Is there anybody here from the US who would be willing to order it for me?

Please set input impedance from 50 Ohm to 1 MOhm and repeat...
OK. I'll bite..... but I cannot get my hands on one due to the distributor restrictions not selling outside of the US (and I thought this would be over).Is there anybody here from the US who would be willing to order it for me? Preferrably a company so sales tax would not apply for me. I will keep care of the shipping (DHL pickup) and pay all other costs of course and will add some premium for your help. Any details with payment etc. should be discussed in private, so please PM me. Please only reputable forum members with a history.Thanks!

Why bother ordering a device with such major design flaws? Check the recent video from Dave!
Can someone summarize the US deal, in terms of pricing and features? When does it end?
First you set the settings, then you measure, you dont measure while you use the touch screen, or am i wrong ?You can touch the screen a bit softer also, does the clicking switches also trigger the noise ?
