Anybody got one? Do they suck? Will it last thru 10 years of off-and-on hobby usage? Any horrible "features" that didn't make it to the marketing brochures?
Since all my stuff is ancient and I'm tired of being publicaly embarassed (;-) I've decided to seriously consider some upgrades. My old Hitachi V650-F has been great, but it's sadly in need of a calibration and the controls/switches are a bit flakey at times. After talking with some local cal shops, I've decided that my $250 could be better spent somewhere else.
I called Tucker about a used HP they had on their site, but alas they were all sold out. After yacking with Jerry for a couple of minutes he tossed out the idea of a TDS-1002b. I've looked at the specs and man I feel like I've been living under a rock. It looks like these things almost make thinking a thing of the past. I've never even used a DSO before, so I'm a bit shy about trying something new but they certainly look handy. Any advice?
