This forum is chock full of proof that dozens of people said same thing as you and went nowhere..
Yes, it can go both ways.
It is industrial scale effort that needs both lot of knowledge and time.
Cheaper scopes will mean more people are able to get one.
More people with appropriate schooling will mean more workpower and intellectual power, so more and more people can stand on the shoulders of people before them, thus easing the way for others.
If you are the one that will succeed it would make me very happy for you and thousand of other people that will benefit from it.
I don't think I qualify or even have the energy for it. But I see young people at work that have a second nature to automate everything and get breakthrough in dossiers that have stood still for a long time.
I feel like you are arguing with me, thinking I am against it or that I think it should not be done.
Quite the opposite. I'm rooting for you.
No, I don't think that, the only point where we have different estimations on how hard such a job would be.
You have experience, I do not. But I see energy flowing when young people put their heart into something.
I've studied mathematics and the adagium of the oldest mathematical society in the Netherlands was: Een
onvermoeide arbeid komt alles te boven (untiring labor conquers all).
That spirit is engrained in my life.
It is just that it is not as easy as you think it is..
See above
And why are you suggesting I advocate for people to buy LeCroy instead of Rigol.
I don't.
You asked do I know any scopes that have API provided by manufacturer. I do, LeCroy.
True point. I had an implicit thought about cheap scopes, because there is a lot of talk about he price of these scopes.
That is all..
Idem ;-).
Or since you mentioned it, it can be a sign how "easy" is what you expect to do, if LeCroy can charge so much for it...
I like your thinking.
