Which scope should I choose, Tektronix or Instek?

[Kristian]

Hi!

I have decided to buy an oscilloscope, and have figured out these canidates:

From Tektronix:

And Instek:

Some good or bad experience with them? What should I consider when buying a
scope?


Regards, K

Nobody with experience with the Tektronix TDS 2012 scope or similiar model?
Is it useful for hobby projects?

I use a 1012 although for RF work it doesn't do a good job. For that I use a
475A. Much better on RF. Anything to do with digital I use the 1012.

How much bandwidth does your 1012 have? And how much is necessary for good
RF performance?
