Gonna buy a similar unit ...im using this one for a reference to see if it will do what i need it too..


This one has the signal Generator , and lets say i need to go into the front end of the amp, do i cut the pos/neg clips of the one cable and solder to a 1/4" jack ?

I have to see if software is compatible with my Mac on these scopes....ill spent $500 to $750 range if i need to...i dont want to buy anything cheap

Advice or suggestions ?

Repairing ( well trying to ) my broken stuff and wanting to build a Amp sometime in the future....i watched some you tubers and there reviews they like it..the Pro's out way the Con's

Im still wanting to fix that Blackstar series one EL34 amp..have something to practice on anyways...its probably just a bad resistor or two...its all thru hole parts...But what ones ...have a friend getting me a schematic for that amp...its discontinued so

What brand is the scope? (Old eyes, can't make it out in the photo...)

I've been shopping for a scope, too. Was looking at Hantek.com

Morning....

Its FNIRSI ....its the only one out with the Signal Gen built it....I PM a Tech guy over at another Forum ...his Analog 20mhz machines are fickle so he bought the Hantek....other than getting used to all the bells and whistles, menus and buttons and knobs ...we wished he done so sooner....these Digital machines do so much more he said

I've got a loaner Hantek DSO5102P, but it doesn't have a signal generator. I was thinking of upgrading to a more robust Hantek when I have to give the 5102P back.

@fig, was there a reason you're not going for another Hantek? I was going the path of least resistance — I barely know how to use the one I've borrowed, so having something sort of familiar would've been nice — but even Hantek has so many options...

*argh* I guess I better read up on some other brands. I'll take a look at Mourguitars' FNIRSURI, and Fig's Sighlent Bob thingy, too.

I'm in no rush, let me know how these things work for either of you two. Thanks in advance.
 
It's been a decent little scope overall, but not much room to grow. The one above can be upgraded in several ways should I ever need (or understand) the capabilities. I'd kind of like it to be the last one I buy as well.
 
I used to do tech reporting, because ...
A) I'm interested in tech, $$$ 😻
B) I'm incapable of DOING tech myself ¢¢¢ 😿

I tell you this because I've heard a rumour there's a sale pending with Hantek, so I'd hold off on buying ANYTHING 'til I can confirm from my source.

Why munch on weeds when the greener pastures have faux grass, ehr... foie gras!

You have an incoming tomorrow, I have an outgoing. Sorry @Feral Feline, I got antsy. The good news is, @droneshotfpv talked me into sending it back. You might want to talk to them as well @Mourguitars before unpacking. It sounds like you might can get the next model up for the same price.
