Is there a bandwidth hack for the RTB2004?None that I am aware of. This is a brand new scope! Most who have it here probably have the full 350MHz bandwidth already - due to the promotional launch deal.Likely true.This is not a cheap scope, it's popularity on the forum is mostly related due to the promotional deal. Was a huge marketing win for R&S.I'm not. Now, i own the 70Mhz version without anything...And, I LOVE IT! But for now, i'm completely broke.

This scope is so good that even the 70 meg is worth it. Enjoy your scope!
Anyone annoyed about the handle as me?Whenever i'm trying to carry the scope somewhere I feel that it's so easy to slip out from my hand.
Nope. I'm super serious.
I'd be happy to swap it for a DS1074Z with you. The handle on that is awesome.
Not sure I like the rear handle, seems pretty basic for an expensive scope. I'd much rather something to wrap fingers around. Looks easy to drop.
I just took a look at the RTB2000 R&S web page and checked the dates on all the documentation. Nothing updated since the first week of June when the firmware came out:https://www.rohde-schwarz.com/us/product/rtb2000-productstartpage_63493-266306.htmlLooks like R&S has moved on to other projects.

It's been less than 2 months. How often are you expecting updates?
For a new product, with a list of known issues,most of which were not fixed with the first update, it somewhat disappointing that we've seen nothing since. Maybe they're busy doing some major changes to improve the sluggish UI, maybe.
Am I the only one who finds it mildly amusing to read all those luke-warm to grumbling comments, right under the wildly hyperbolic title which the OP chose for this tread?

It is an excellent scope [...]

You are not alone Sir.It is an excellent scope, just frustrating that it's let down by a few small details, most of which ought to be fixable given the effort.
