Looking to buy a new oscilloscope about 100 Megz 4 channel any advice on make and model.

 

Rigol makes a nice 100mhz scope at a decent price. If you are in the States I would recommend purchasing from Saelig.

 

A 4 channel cheap Rigol?

Oh 4 channel. I was thinking 2. I doubt you will find any decent 4 channel scope at cheap prices.

 

I think that's why nobody has answered.

If there's a cheap 4 channel DSO someone please post it here!

Take to Rigol 2 channel scopes. Put them in a box, drop them from a second story window and hope for the best.

 

Not bad!

I'd be tempted to glue two of them together, and try to hack the external trigger inputs together somehow...

You seldom need more than 2 channels. Why do you want 4?

I can tell you I purchased one of these:

Instek GDS-2064

at work a few years ago and have been nothing but happy. Naturally, extra memory depth and more sampling never hurts, but this fit my 4 channel requirements and the price tier I was looking for (around $1K).

I agree that 2 channels is often sufficient, but I can tell you in my line of work, I wouldn't even think of going back.

 

I use a Tectronix 7633, 4 (or more ) channel storeage scope. analog, and getting a little old by now, but still has a clean sharp trace. plugins available for as many channels as you want.

Nice! Seems to be replaced by this model now;

with a much larger 8" 800x600 display.
