content: Hey guys,Last year I bought this scope as I thought I'd be doing a lot more electronics work... well it turns out I have not and can not justify this super nice scope sitting around collecting dust. It is in mint condition--hardly used at all. I've attached a couple of pictures of it showing the minutes left on the trial features to show how little it has been used. This is the original ds20072 (not a version) that is apparently super easy to 'upgrade' using a hack that has been documented online. I'm asking $700 shipped (CONUS) since it is in like new condition. New they are going for $840. I'm verified on Paypal. Scope will ship in original box.

content: Be aware that the DS2072A can be modified up to 300MHz, this one only to 200MHz (I know because I own one) and the A can do CAN bus decoding.So when the A model came out it devalued the non A model.Best way to get the $700 might be through ebay if no one here is interested, where they are selling the DS2072A from China at a higher price that you could purchase them from the States.

content: 2072 goes to 2302, too, with CAN (I know because I own one). The HW is 2.0.

content: Quote from: sigxcpu on June 02, 2014, 07:01:19 amHmm, interesting I will have to look that up, I thought it was just for the 2072A, i'm at HW 2.0.Edit: I remember one person got the 300MHz on the 2072 but seemed like there was no way to repro that.Do you have a link to that? not the sniffing the rigol one, i've been keeping up and never saw that claim but I'm willing to search again.Edit again, seems that filedroper file is gone, I mean the one that got you the 2302 so unless it's available elsewhere it can't be done.

content: Thanks for clearing that up, guys! I've had a few offers, but its still available. I am willing to ship internationally, but looking into it for a forum member in the UK, it does not look cheap.
