[Elecraft] scope suggestions?

[Bob-AG5Q]

Hi Bob,

Here's an interesting family of scopes that make use of a PC for display and
image storage:
The 12 bit ADC and large memory buffer look attractive.

These are not cheap but they do include the software and they are physically
small.
Tektroniks has nice scopes but the less expensive ones have small memories
and software is extra.

The company has been in business for several years, although I haven't tried
the Picotech scopes myself. .
Maybe someone can give us a first hand report on them.

73/ Bob - AG5Q
