Hi Viesturs. Be careful, the 6022BE is advertised as being a scope-only, whereas the 6022BL is a 6022BE plus the 16 channel logic analyser function - hence the price difference. (The best price on AliExpress, with free shipping for me would be US$88 for the BL and US$66 for the BE)
However, if you just want to do some simple logic analyser work, then what about: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1pcs-New-Arrival-USB-Logic-Analyzer-24M-8CH-MCU-ARM-FPGA-DSP-debug-tool/1710322113.html for US$7.80 shipping included. OF COURSE this "toy" cannot do what the fancy ones do, and it is only a logic analyser, not an oscilloscope, but I bought one - got good service from the supplier, and was very favourably impressed at what a "cheap" thing like this can do. I think you mention that you have not had an oscilloscope/ logic analyser before. You might want to go with something simple like this to get to know what it can do, and then you can be more specific as to what you want your "Rolls Royce" to do when you buy it. In that way you will know what you want, and pay for that only, instead of just buying the biggest and best option that you can afford. Hope that helps.

Since I use my laptop for 3D modelling, that is my only PC with non-ubuntu OS (I am not yet aware of any decent 3D CAD application that would work on Linux), so OS is not an issue at the moment, it has Ubuntu as well. > I'd go with Gene's suggestion, or that one I posted a week or two ago. I found a message from you with a link to pocket oscilloscope. Did you mean that? The reason I asked is that I do not believe in miracles and the price looks too good for a decent oscope, I managed to find this: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/hantek-6022be-will-it-work-for-me/ There is link to another forum. Those guys do not seem very happy with the device, but the thing is that I do not know, how much did they expect and how bad it really is in the end. I have never owned an oscope, so I have no idea, what to really look for. I would like that logic analyzer feature for that "print on the wall" wall project I wrote some time ago - we still would like to hack that Epson head, tried to check the lines with oscilloscope (found a guy with an oscope, visited him), but did not find out much. There are few lines that seem to switch particular areas of nozzles on and off, so we decided that logic analyzer would help there. 2014-10-07 12:53 GMT+03:00 andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com>: > > If you have the money they go to 20 GHz....

Could you, please, share exact model number, so that I can look it up or even a link to particular device? It is not that I am sticking with the cheapest possible solution, the intended budget was up to 300 eur. I just would not want to spend some extra for features that sound cool to me as a newbie, but are of very specific use that I will never need. OTOH I do not want to purchase cheapest machine and then find out that it is basically useless (which is the case very often, when one does not know, what to look for - like me at the moment).
