Good review,

Do you already use other oscillsocope brand like MSOX4154A reference or MSO5204B reference?

Do you have a preference about brand or model?

About the interface, what is better or not with RTE 1204?

I remark you compare only on price and not on other caracteristic.

King regards

Very good overview of the features.

I remember when I worked on an early version of a digital oscilloscope back in the early 1980's.

I had to program everything through a small keypad. I see some of the same basic markers and calculations that I started with, but then we did not even think about a point and click type interface. We were still using CPM for our software development, but we showed the power of digital control of captured data.

What you have today is light years ahead of where we started, but then I was using a Z80 and you have some serious CPU power in the R&S scope.
