content: Went a bit bonkers on an auction yesterday so this baby, that has served me quite well over the last months, has to go! Comes only with power chords, nothing else. Well, that's not true, there's still a roll of paper in the printer. And just for fun and giggles, I just tried it. Sure enough: works like a charm!I'm located in Belgium but will ship pretty much anywhere (except for warzones and countries like Russia perhaps). Difficult to put a price on it as it depends a lot on location, whether you are a bussiness (both of these determine if VAT is applicable), payment method etc. etc. So, if anyone is interested or needs more info, drop me a line!

content: Just to add that all the software options (and there were many!) can be (legally!) enabled for a few bucks or even free. LeCroy gave the binaries for the option GALs to someone in the Yahoo LeCroy onwer's group, who now sells the upgrades for a modest price. Alternatively, one can download the images and burn their own GALs.

content: Thanks as always mr. HundGot a whole slew LeCroy scopesinbound.Any idea if the LC574AL is also supported? Would be nice if I could bundle a few so I could all upgrade them to the best they can be...

content: Quote from: Ice-Tea on July 28, 2016, 06:55:19 pmI know, I saw the listSome interesting things on it, but some like the SDA100G (which is an old-style sampling scope) will be a very tough sale. I also have to say that I think that some of the asking prices are a bit excessive ($7k for that 1.5GHz Yokogawa which is at least 4yrs old?)There are some items that I'd be interested in, but guess in terms of asking price we'd be way apart.QuoteThe GALs should work on all 9300 and LC Series scopes.

content: Thans for the info. I'll look into it.As for prices: deel free to make an offer. Worst I can say is no. Also, I set the prices fairly simply: check eBay offers and make it a bit cheaper thans the cheapest offering. You may be right it's stille expensive but it seemed like a good place to start. In addition: have you checked the Yoka datasheet? Maybe mu unconscious simply does not want to sell it. Looks perfectly decent as a daily Rider!Finally: if you know anyone with a heap of cheap SDA100G modules...

content: Quote from: Wuerstchenhund on July 29, 2016, 05:46:38 amNot sure about the LC series CPU memory, but for the 93XX scopes it's a good idea to upgrade the processor to 64MB to get the "Mega waveform processing" option. It's cheap as it uses old 72 pin EDO memory.https://groups.io/g/LeCroyOwnersGroup/topic/989259http://materias.fi.uba.ar/6644/info/osciloscopios/avanzado/MATH%20PROCESSING/MegaWaveformProcessing.pdfJay

content: Quote from: Ice-Tea on July 29, 2016, 06:00:49 amI'll think about it. There's one item (not LeCroy) I'm contemplating but in terms of pricing we'd probably be worlds appart.QuoteEbay offers are generally a bad way to get an idea of the real-world value of an item, even less so for items that are less common, simply because it's full of sellers that ask excessive prices for items which will never sell (some of the kit has been relisted for years, probably waiting for some poor fool who's stupid enough to pay what they ask for). If anything you should look at sold items, because this is the only data that tells you for how much money an item can actually find a buyer.Quote@Cheap' isn't exactly a word which I'd describe the modules, which for the high bandwidth variants (i.e. 70Ghz+) still fetch silly money. What goes cheap are the SDA/WaveExpert mainframes, which I've seen go for less than $2k.Quote from: Jwalling on July 29, 2016, 10:40:20 amGood adviceThe LC can be upgraded to 128MB if I remember right, and as you say old 72pin EDO or FPM DIMMs (both work, although not mixed) are cheap.

content: Quote from: Wuerstchenhund on July 30, 2016, 01:04:54 pmYou might as well give it a shot. In the end, if I can't get rid of it on eBay I'll probly take whatever offer I can get.QuoteWell, Ihavesold some in the past, so I'm not entirely clueless. I'm also not expecting to sell 'm for eBay prices (or actually: slightly below it). It's just a decent place to start. If it doesn't sell for that price, I'll drop and keep doing that untill I get rid of it.QuoteMight still make sense for me. Always easier to sell a complete set. So if you come across one, would be nice of you could let you know. Mind you, I won't be able to buy pretty much anything for at least 4 weeks. Too much tied up in that "Score" deal.
