Broken parts are an excellent opportunity to explore and learn without any real cost. Thanks for sharing this rebuild and extra points for having the guts to work on your own test equipment.</p><p>John</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=3534&AppID=13&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/technologies/test-and-measurement/b/blog/posts/repairing-my-rigol-ds1052e-oscilloscopeSun, 10 Sep 2017 17:05:23 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:08f73230-d4ce-4969-ab4e-25640528d469DAB1<p>A good reminder for making sure your test gear is well packaged during shipping.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>DAB</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=3534&AppID=13&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
