Hi guys-
I am in the market for my first oscilloscope. I need something i can use at my bench at home that will get the job done that doesn't have to be too extravagant.
I am a bit confused on what specs i should be looking at for a general unit, i am guessing bandwidth. At first i was looking at the BK Precision 2120b unit @30mhz and a cost of 350$, but then i was asking myself if i should spend the money and buy a a nicer digital unit like the Tektronix 1001b which is closer to 900$.
As a college student cost is important but i would rather buy something that will work well and last so i don't have any regrets.
Any thoughts ideas , is it worth it ? Are there other brands that i should be looking at.
THanks
