My current scope is a rigol ds1054z. It does everything expected from an entry level scope and then some, and with a small hack it can become its much higher priced big brother. If you need a great scope for the money this is a 10/10. Even EEVblog shilled it.

>$471 minumum
I'm probably going to end up getting an old CRT one for <$100 on ebay to hold me over until I can afford a real one. Last job I was using the Agilent MSOX4154A and it completely spoiled me with the touch screen, freq counter, function gen and all the toys added on to it.

Even renting one of those new keysight scopes is more than my montly rent. I'm pretty sure they have the best ADC in the world.

Where would you even rent something like that? Where I live I wouldn't even know where to begin.

I'm going to buy that same exact rigol, I tried to find an analog scope in my area, but the ones I found were highly overpriced, maybe because they should be in a museum.

My uni wont toss away those sweet, sweet hp 54600, I love the color of phosphor plus I want an analog to beat them up with circuits with lots of inductive kicks and high voltage. If they ever throw them away I'll be the first in line.

Got it a couple of days ago, extremely pleased with it, I used the 100Mhz hack and unlocked a few extra features. I'm going to ground my plugs because it picks a lot of hum, maybe I'll get an isolation transformer, but I don't see the point, since I'm not probing dangerous circuits.

This is my modest rig, sorry, the pic is kinda blurry.
