marmad, heh, you need to one me up....
you probably would use 'DS1000Z', as you know about it (and still find zilch, same as search i mentioned). i wouldn't bet all people buying scopes think in series' numbers. infact i would say most would just think more precise info would be found if they input EXACTLY what they have. ie rigol product line/series don't play that much to them.
(this is a usual mistake technically minded folks do, they think everybody is equally tech. minded as them. they also think everybody is an active member of eevblog forum looking for new rigol scopes all the time?
)
as for forum search, did you try it? inform us do you get results from this page. or would you like me to make a screenshot?
sure
see attachment....
That was 4 and 1/2 years - and a much smaller EEVblog - ago.
you seem to be saying that rigol wants this as a dirty lil secret that everybody and nobody knows about?
while you're discussing about it for long time now? and people started to talk about hacking (not just here) as soon as it appeared.
doesn't add up.
It's easy to find the information.
no. you're biased because you're talking about it for a year and a half.
this scope is so new it's not mentioned that much on the web
at all.people just recently started to buy it and hack it.
and are checking the rise/fall times to see if they actually got higher bandwidth.(i'm talking about checked and rechecked info, ie people trying it and working for them..on this scope..not talking about any other rigol scope)
While I appreciate your desire to not have to do any work whatsoever for free stuff, that hardly seems like a great reason for Dave to have to make a video about it.
i did my work, didn't i mention the right thread? and key making web-page.
listen, do a bit of a social experiment, tell one of your friends to find instructions how to hack this scope, and inform us how it goes.
(but don't wait too much, google will soon find this thread
)
today, your friend would mostly find 1052 hacking info. other info would not be that obvious.
dave will make a review and i don't really care will he mention hack at all. i'm just predicting that rigol can expect higher sales if he does, but i'm not suggesting he will talk about it (if he does) for that reason.
he bought one, so he can say anything he wants about it. and he should. good points, bad points, hacking points.
i would expect we all give such reviews of the gear we have.
if it's mine, i can hack it.
hell i could try eating those chips and pcbs if i'm inclined so.
That would imply I don't how to properly use a search engine.
know how. know-how.
(you edited/milden it down in meantime...but i'll leave it because you left "much more sense"...heh..but if you prove it, i'll erase all reference to it...)
edit/ it's over, google found us just now, now everybody knows!
