So, finally it's time to look for a new DSO. Except Newark,
TestEquipmentDepot and Tequipment I haven't found a lot of major dealers
for new scopes and other test equipment. To my surprise I could not find
regular digital scopes at Digikey, Mouser or ham shops like AES. Are
there other major ones? Where do you typically buy?

I don't need it often so I wanted to stay under $2k. Must be 1Gs/sec
single-shot or more, 200MHz BW, plus a USB connection of some kind, and
not too heavy. So far I found:

Agilent DSO3202, pretty nice features but only 4k memory.
Tektronix TDS2022, only a paltry 2.5K memory.
Instek GDS-2202, 25K memory, under $1500.

My favorite from a feature point of view is the Hameg HM2008. A stunning
megabytes deep buffer, analog portion with 14kV tube, meaning you get a
real analog scope along with it. But OTOH due to the high Euro it's
around $2500. That would be a bit much but ok. However, its size and
weight really wouldn't work, it's basically a full size big scope.

http://www.big-list.com is a website listing a lot of new & used test
equipment dealers, and manual sources.


Thanks. But I was more looking for new ones. The B-series Tek and
foreign brands such as Instek aren't showing up at used equipment
dealers yet. When it comes to electronics parts we have a lot more
sources than I found back in Europe. With equipment it seems the other
way around. Over there I was bombarded with specials and sales all the
time. Not here.


Do you get the emails from http://www.testandmeasurement.com ?
