I'm not sure about UltraStation. I installed UltraSigma and UltraScope. UltraSigma appears to be the "driver" which talks with the scope while UltraScope is the graphical front end for operating the scope. -- Cheers!

I copied the wrong filename to the email in haste. I installed UltraSigma 0.1.6.1. I agree that it is a driver of sorts. All my comments re r-click apply to it. But my UltraScope, though it connects, won't actually talk with the DS1202 reliably After every UltraScope action, some of which work (such as Run|Stop), the scope is disconnected. The Virtual Panel simply does not work. Yet UltraSigma seems to always be connected and the SCPI commands work. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

Well, if budget permits, I would recommend the Keysight DSAZ594A. This
would be especially useful on some of the higher amateur radio bands. 73, John AC0ZG On 12/9/2020 7:31 AM, inventor61 wrote: > I would be remiss, as a Keysight employee, to not mention the option of > going with something like the Keysight model EDUX1052A (available from > numerous vendors such as Mouser) or, if the budget permits and one wants to > do things like sweep filters, have an integrated bench signal generator, > serial data protocol analyser, etc., the DSOX1204G (which I have). > > Keysight is the test equipment company formerly known by many as > Hewlett-Packard, today headquartered in Santa Rosa, CA. > > Steve KZ1X > Celebrating 21 years of daily Elecraft reflector use today > Owner / Builder of K2 #771, > The World's Most Experienced Elecraft > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[hidden email] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to [hidden email] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

Funny! 59GHz bandwidth, 160G/sec sample rate. If $512,392 (base model) is in the budget, why not?!?

I could mortgage my house twice over and still not be able to afford that equipment….

Excited about the scope recommendations on this thread, I’ve been looking at all the models mentioned, reading specs, etc., etc. thinking about replacing my old Tektronix 475A - a nice 250MHz dual trace analog scope.
My heart stopped as I read the specs of the DSAZ594A: - 59GHz upgradable to 63GHz bandwidth!! (and I was thinking a measly 200MHz ’scope at less than 1% of the bandwidth of this model would be sufficient !!) - 80 GSa/sec on 4 channels!! - 33GHz probes - 15.4 inch display and the incredible list goes on and on! But seriously… over a half a MILLION dollars!!@#$%@!! WOW. I held my breath for a moment. One could by well over a THOUSAND nice Rigol or Siglent scopes at this price. I bet Elecraft doesn’t even have one in their development lab? Impressive technology all the way down to the custom IC’s designed to process at microwave frequencies. Interesting reading for those who marvel at leading edge technology.

I had a zoom based oscilloscope demo with our Keysight rep last Wednesday.
They said the $25 k scope I got for our lab at work has the same oscilloscope ASIC chip that the million dollar one has, it's just the bandwidth you are paying for.
