content: This is worth considering. 100 MHz upgrade included for a real R&S scope. No idea how it compares with Agilent (Keysh...whatever, etc). Possibly the EEV discount code applies too.http://www.tequipment.net/Rohde-&-Schwarz/HMO-Max/Digital-Oscilloscopes/?b=y&v=7910Paul

content: Seems to have some interesting features and options, especially for the price.anyone know if this a true R&S product or a rebrand?I couldn't immediately find the cost of the MSO logic probes.

content: I know, maybe I asking my question wrong. For example, LeCroy/Agilent/etc rebadge other manufacturers products under their own names. I am wondering if this R&S/Hameg scope is truly manufactured by the badged companies, or is an oursourced product.It looks like a real Hameg scope, but the price is throwing me off...

content: Interesting. How does it compare to rigol 2072a? You can hack the Rigol to 300mhz with a lot more memory(14 vs 1M) .

content: Hm... Somehow I fail to see why I should pay 1000$ for this scope while I can get the same/better (Scope + Signal-Generator with MUCH BETTER Specs and Counter, 6000count DMM) equipment for roughly the same amount by getting Rigol, Hantek, Owon or Siglent Equipment.Did I miss something?

content: Quote from: VE7FM on July 29, 2015, 08:27:42 pmYou can always choose for the Rigol MSO1000Z. Dunno how well it works but it is cheaper than the Hameg and has a higher display resolution.

content: The MSO part is interesting, and the price seems ok. If I was in a market for a lower end MSO I am not sure I would consider it over a Rigol MSO1104Z though. It is better spec-wise in many ways. More analog channels, more digital channels, 3x higher waveform update rate, more memory..I dunno, I hear the UI is pretty good on Hamegs, so that might be a factor in Hameg'a favor.

content: Quote from: Muxr on July 30, 2015, 01:26:27 amNot just the UI. The HMO also has a digital pattern generator, which is pretty rare. Plus it has much better FFT (128kpts) than any Rigol scope, and a much lower noise floor than the Rigols.And the firmware that R&S/Hameg puts out is generally worlds apart from the bug feast that can be found in Rigol kit.

content: I asked for a quote last year. This is in aud, so gst=10% on top i suspect.Hello Anthony:I have just received your request for information on the HMO1002 Oscilloscope.The pricing is as follows:The base price of the HMO1002 is:HMO1002 (50MHz) is $1,100The option to take the unit to 70MHz is +$170 on the base price.The option to go from 70MHz to 100MHz is +$170 on the base price.The option to go from 50MHz to 100MHz is +$340 on the base price.1100+340 = 1440 aud == 1047.53 US DollarMakes me doubt the $2200 list on tequipment.I ended up getting a hmo722 for a good price on the forum.---(the 100 MHz version is 998 Euros)= 1090usd. So free Lin/Can decoder.
