content: I'm giving away a Keysight 1000 X-series oscilloscope, as found in my dumpster.Make ONE POST in this thread with anything you want for the random draw.Put a reason you want the scope and I might be able to find another one for someone in need.You can enter from any country, but you may be responsible for any local import duties or taxes etc in your country.The usual forum giveaway rules apply- Being stupid and posting twice will get you deleted. This is NOT a thread for discussion.- You must have a decent number of useful posts on the forum (in Dave's view)- End date is whenever I feel like it.- Dave makes the rules and can break them- Draw is done by the Wobulator program that picks a post at random from this thread.

content: I really want to upgrade from the 1054Z. Very limited for what i have to do (need canbus at home now too.. plus other.)Infact, i was considering one ot the new 2 chan scopes but besides this and a pico i wouldn't have chosen anything else, really.(why are these the only two that can use the EXT signal for serial decoding? that i don't understand)If/When i'll get one the 1054 will go to a friend in more needIf in the meantime i'll find a good deal on ebay (because i can't get on with the scopemonth) i'll post again here to whidraw my chanceGood luck!

content: Hi Dave. I'm a fresh member (this being my first post), but a long time lurker on the forum and of course a huge fan of eevblog and amp hour. If one post can be considered decent number (doubtfully) count me in. I'm in the process of making a translating circuit between my central heating system (ebus vaillant) and esp8266 (possibly to get it integrated with my home plc) and would love to get my hands on a decent scope.Even if "decent number" is more than one, I will have an account to take part in community, so win win!

content: Hi Dave!I'm here in Finland, the opposite side of earth related to Australia. It would nicely balance the world by sending oscilloscope here. I could make world best metal detector that i have planned. And maybe a lot of otherstupidgreat devices. I also like to repair all kind of electronics but lack of oscilloscope makes it hard every now and then.

content: I'm in. I'd love to have a Keysight scope, even though I admit to having a Rigol one - so I'm not a very deserving case.
