Thank you for your time putting this together. Appreciate your thoughts and review. Just bought the Owon HDS272S after your evaluation. Been looking around for handheld in the last 2 years for hobby and toying around.
Thank you Kerry. I really appreciate your detailed reviews and comparisons. They are very helpful when it comes to making test equipment purchases. Keep up the good work.
Kerry, this was the exact side-by-side review I was looking for. And your presentation was awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this presentation. 12 out of 10!
Thank you for this very detailed comparison. Really helped much to understand technical details of both.
Very enlightening, thanks for the detailed information. I've been looking at the Hantek as my first scope for various tasks (mostly repairing, altering, and maintaining old computers and CRT monitors, but also because my son is interested in electronics and I'd really like to show him how waveforms relate to sounds as we hear them) but it definitely sounds like I should spend some time considering the OWON before I make my decision.
Pretty much made up my mind to get the Owon. Thanks again for an excellent analysis. Subscribed.
A very good and detailed comparison indeed! It will surely help me to choose well between the Hantek or Owon oscilloscope
Thank you
Thanks for providing such a detailed, and comprehensive review. You speak in a clear way, and pace that was easy for me to understand despite a slight accent relative to my part of the world. You were able to cover a lot of information as quickly as possible. I learned a little about the functionality of each in a way that you cannot by simply reading the manuals. I think I will be keeping my Hantek, because I need the longer battery life, and easier user interface more than the higher level functionality of the Owon for the work I'm doing.
Outstanding, in-depth review. You even covered continuity testing! (Personally I prefer "scratchy", but that isn't a dealbreaker.)
I was trying to choose between these two exact devices, and you told me everything I needed and more. Much appreciated!
Fantastic review! I wish I owned the OWON after watching. I hope the vast number of accessories and the abilities they will afford my new handheld Oscilloscope can nudge it up. I hope to see more reviews challenging these two in real world tasks. Cheers!
Working on some e-Bike hacks in the garage and have grown tired of dragging my bench meter out, so I am shopping for the handheld o-scope/DMM right now and both of these ended up in my cart: I'll decide after the video. Many thanks brotha as always, love the content!
Excelente comparativa, muchas gracias, fue de mucha utilidad!
Thanks for the comparison! I wanted to buy Hantek (because I have a desktop scope from Hantek, and it works well), but bought Owon instead after watching your review.
Tested it with a 200 MHz probe to make sure the the probe is not the limiting factor. The max frequency this scope can measure is 84 MHz. At this frequency it still shows a decent sine wave of proper amplitude and shows the frequency. At higher frequencies it still can draw the curve on screen decently, but can't measure frequency anymore (shows ???).
The signal generator in it is not great, but definitely usable.
Overall, a fantastic tool sold at reasonable price.
Excellent comparative review. I'm glad I watched this video before making a decision to go for Hantek or Owon.
I recently purchased an OWON HDS2102S. There are a lot of qualities I like about the HD72 O-Scope. From what you mentioned, I'm now glad I made the investment towards the HDS2102S since it is a true RMS meter which is important for my work since I deal with a lot of electricity issues on how electronic devices react to electrical changes. Thanks.
Excellent review. I have the Hantek and your findings are right on.
HANTEK 2D42와 OWON HDS242S 사이에서 선택을 고민하고 있었는데, 이 영상이 큰 도움이 되었습니다. 감사합니다!
Thank you for this very comprehensive comparison between these very interesting devices.
You are welcome!
Great thanks. It's a really deep and useful review.
What a great review. The selling point for me is the current drain in standby. Knowing I have to charge the batteries in less than every six months would annoy me. And, that's if you don't use the meter. Now i use the meter maybe twice a month, I better keep an extra set of batteries laying around.
Thanks for posting such a great review.

谢谢您提供如此专业的评测！Thank you very much!
I feel like a major difference in the way those two scopes display the waveforms (especially visible in X-Y mode) is that the Hantek is capturing a single sample sweep, displaying it, then going around again, whereas the OWON's display seems to be a blend of multiple triggering rounds. Hence you see a thin trace jumping around on the Hantek, whereas a thicker but smooth and stable blended trace on the OWON. I wonder if that is a mode configuration on either of them? I know on my Rigol bench scope that's a setting I can adjust, to get either behaviour.
Excellent review!
again great vieo full of useful information . great job man
I have the HDS272S as a portable option to my bench scopes and AWGs. And I am very satisfied with this instrument. I've never tried the X-Y mode, but as I can see in your video this is just amazing for a digital scope.
Great to hear!
What means x y mode?
Channel 1 controlling vertical trace, channel 2 controlling horisontal trace (no internal sweep).
As always, a top-class video and great presentation.
The Owon do not appear to support custom probe selection , for example is it possible to use a 20:1 attenuator and add this to the menu system.
I've got mixed feelings about this review; I like the features of both! Mostly the DMM I'd use the most, so the slow continuity on the Owen I'm not pleased about; Hantek has 3rd party software too that works with linux! The function gen I'd use in the field to trick bits of PLC gear. Great video either way mate!
Great job, thanks so much
Thank you for this comparison.
You are welcome!
Thanks for the comprehensive review
Glad it was helpful!
The hantek does have a test point for the probe. It is the AWG output even on models without the AWG the connector is still there and outputs 1MHz for you to tune your probe.
Thanks for comparison good job appreciate that Thanks
This was a great review and comparison. The recessed port is a geat idea as it does not poke out too much on the bench. Maybe if the LCD brightness could be adjusted then the current draw would be quite lower ? The OWON gets my vote for having the larger screen but I much prefer the HANTEK firmware.
thanks for the review
Great and very complete analysis, can you make another comparative between OWON HD272S vs Tektronix THS710 ?
I appreciate the review, Very informative.
Thanks!
@@KerryWongBlog Hi, what do you think aborto XY option?
Hantek or Owon what is better?
Best Regards.
@@treadmillrepair754 Owon is a clear winner in XY mode.
Excellent and thorough review.
I bought the Owon HDS 242 back in April, and are verry pleased with it.
The only thing I'm missing is firmware updates from Owon.
It doesn't look like Owon releases updates for any of their products.
That's to bad as mine is at version 1.8.0 while the new ones are at version 3.x.x i belive.
Thanks!
Try to mail owon directly because of the update.
The reason that is ,is because they had to use different screens on the more recent ones.
@@eman59461 dumb Argument! You cook up different Firmware Version depending on serial number they know who has different TFT.. never leave old customers in the dust they won't buy again and advise against you :-) no update is not smart
thanks for comparison.
Great job Kerry! Lot's of great comments, relative to the specifications, and so really nice experimental head to head measurements. There is one area though where you could make a major improvement,
Sadly, a lot's of these Chinese Handheld scopes list fantasy-land specs claiming "Real Time Sampling" up to some impressively high frequency, but actually silently switch to what euphemistically used to be called "equivalent time" multi-pass sampling for all the fastest ns/div sweep ranges, making them USELESS for any kind of high speed one shot capture (like the the FNIRSI 5012H).
"Equivelent Time" sampling is a technological fossil record technique that was used ages back (some time around the late Jurassic I think), in Dinosaur DSO scopes by big-guns like HP and LeCroy to boost their claimed sampling bandwidth. It works by taking multiple passes at the waveform, at multiple points in time, over multiple cycles - and therefore can ONLY work with a static perfectly repetitive non-changing waveform.
In the modern world, most digital waveforms are anything but 'repetitive and non-changing' so all of those Dinosaur DSO "equivalent time" oscilloscopes became extinct virtually overnight when, like a meteor dropping into the Yucatan, Tektronix dropped the TDS-210/220 series into the market and showed everyone that a reasonably priced scope really could offer REAL no-B.S. "real time" sampling at 1 Gs/sec.
Unfortunately, some of the manufactures of these Chinese handheld scopes have figured out how to extract the Dino DSO DNA and resurrect "equivalent time" sampling so they can cut corners and shave a few bucks off the cost of their scopes (like the FNIRSI 5012H) .
The careful sine wave tests you have done so far prove NOTHING because any repetitive signal will sample fine under "equivalent time" sampling mode.
But it's not that hard to find out if "equivalent time" sampling is being used. Just set up a high speed non-repetitive signal, like a very high speed SPI data bus signal running at say 30 Mbits/sec (generated by something like a raspberry pi pico, or pi zero), and then try to one-shot capture a SINGLE SPI DATA FRAME and see if you get a waveform that accurately captures the data that was sent, or one that is total garbage (which will happen if the high speed sweep ranges use any kind of non-realtime "equivelent time" sampling).
Technically, at 90 MHz analog bandwidth, and at a 250Ms/s sample rate, all these scopes should handle the fundamental, second, and third harmonics of a 30MHz NRZ data stream, allowing the data to be rendered reasonably well, but it shure would be nice to see some examples of how badly each scope's anti aliasing interpolation filters chew up the data waveform (or whether it can even be captured at all) before I go out and plonk down a couple hundred bucks to buy one.
Great review!
One question: can these scopes be used for measuring power of sinusoidal and square waves, by simply multiplying voltage measured on CH 1 with current on the CH 2?
Unfortunately, these scopes do not support math functions.
is there a larger screen bench version of the owon? (with i2c decode as icing on the cake?)
Thank you for the review. Very detailed. Seems like Hantek have better/more functions while owen has better components and is built better.
how much of a deal breaker is the visible probe comp terminal for calibrating? is is possible to do on the hantek? looking at first scope and thihs was a gr8 review. thanks
What is the power consumption of the meters with the backlight off? That could be a contributor to the Owon's higher power consumption due to the larger screen size.
Thank you.
Hi, thanks a lot for the video. Are these oscilloscopes valid to see the wave form of a 230VAC grid or inverter signal? If not, could I use a 230/48 transformer and the 10x? Does the transforme "smooth/disturb/...." the signal? Do you have any video about how to see this signal to chekc modified, pure sine, armonics, .... Thanks
Hi. Does your hds272 has voltage drift as the components inside the case warm up? I mean the values displayed by the "mean" function. In my hds242, the voltage drift after 0.5h is even 2V, until the scopemeter warms up sufficiently.
it's amazing it takes so long to start reading a resistance. is it something a firmware upgrade would fix? also, something i'm curious about, in single (single shot) mode will it record both channels or only the channel it triggered on?
I am sure the firmware can be tweaked to make it better but the resistance measurement speed is largely dependent on the DMM chip used. On your other question, the single shot behavior is similar to all other DSOs. When you have both channel enabled, it will capture data from both channels when triggered from either of the channels. Hope it helps.
Just to clarify - The Hantek DOES have a probe test signal. It is available at the AWG output.
In function generating mode, can (in some of these reviewed osciloscopes) I put a square signal and then adjust duty and voltage?
21:06 WTF doesn't Hantek measure/shows you the frequency?
What is the amplitude of the spurious signals, compared to the fundamental?
Can you review Hanmatek HO102 100MHz series handheld scope ?
Nice review, I owned an early model OWON scope and found the user interface confusing and difficult. So I wonder which scope has a better user interface? Tnx
The users interfaces are quite comparable. Neither one is perfect and it does take some getting used to.
Amazing video! Can you please share the file with the noise waveform?
Thanks for this side by side! Owon is a totally win for me, that Hantek standby current is a no deal, way too high if you don use/recharge it very often. Add your affiliate link to the description!
Thanks! Added the links if you wanted to check out.
@@KerryWongBlog Hi Sir, Owon looks better for me.
Do you know if the Hantek have XY option?
I want to buy one of this small scopes for use my curve tracer.
Best Regards.
@@treadmillrepair754 Yes, I demonstrated that in this video, speed-wise OWON's XY mode is much faster compared to that of the Hantek.
@@KerryWongBlog Thanks so Much
The Owon standby current was a lot higher than the Hantek.....
Hello, which one is better for audio equipment restoration? Not for professional use of course
Thank you.
Doesn't the hantek have a probe test signal on it's third BCM connector?
Can the OWON HD272S read 3 millivolts AC RMS at 200kHz bandwidth accurately ? Or also 50v AC 200kHz ?
The hantek does have probe compensation on the awg output.
Excellent in depth review
Excellent comparison, thanks.
Any update on the Owon multimeter acquisition speed ? Any firmware update from Owon available ?
I received mine last week. The multimeter acquisition speed looks fine . Not sure that the capacitor function works OK. In addition, more languages are available. So far a great tool.
Super
Question: if you buy the Owon HDS272 (without waveform generator), will the unit last longer than the 6 hour estimated range of the HDS272S? I am assuming it should be slightly better if they reduce the chipset from the PC board, but would like input from someone that may know.
Higher consumption could mainly be due to larger screen and much faster processor.
Them leads the grounds are way to short to use in the automotive business. Can we use longer leads from other scopes if they don’t have the compensation screws on them
I like my Owon. I only get about 1 month of standby time. I measured
the total standby load (both batteries) of 2.9ma.
What's the hardware version? Looks like it's an issue with an older hardware/firmware?
The Hantek has no fuses in the MM. Could that be a problem?
Спасибо за подробный обзор. Не могли бы Вы сделать подобный обзор для DSO 2512G Oscilloscope?
Купил его и теперь жалею. Иммитация осциллографа. Точность измерений примерно как у dso150.
I would like to see if you could show a demo using ether one of this scope meter on a CB radio like modulation and dead key and possibly squeezing watts out of a stock radio
THANK YOU
In advance

Hi, i know its not the same model but what would you choose between the Siglet SHS800X - 200MHz and an OWON HDS4202M-N 200MHz , different in price, and features but overall I can't decide
OWON HDS2102S vs Tektronix THS720A
Which of these two devices would make sense to buy?
I dont fined any data of Voltcraft Dscope 707 Scopmeter,you help me?
Is it possible to use both the wave generator and the oscilloscope at the same time?
Say I wanted to use the wave gen to output a 10kHz sine wave into my circuit and measure the output wave of my circuit on the oscilloscope. Will I be able to do this on either of these handheld scopes?
hi,
p.25 of the manual : "To observe the output of the waveform generator, connect the other end of the BNC cable to the signal input connector of the oscilloscope." => seems possible
on the factory floor i would consider the CAT III for the same basic money... 👍 the scopes are getting there still undecided on which one. thanks... 😊
The OWON I had used "flat top" integrated batteries and NOT the "button top" user replaceable batteries we all know and love. When the batteries die, the unit still works but only on USB power.
Another AWG note is that the greater resolution of the Owan is not very useful because of the much worse S/N ratio.
which the best for automotive technician ?
One major caveat - owon arbitrarily limits their oscilloscope display to 10V/div, unlike something like a rigol which has 100V/div. Despite the fact the bnc input supports up to 400V.
This VS cheap one from 40 dollar ?? I do nog like the connection of this multimeter with scoop option.
Which is the best Hantek or Owon
why even make a DMM that is non-fused for current measurement????
In my opinion both models are quite competitive as both have some pros/cons and I really wish to have some mixture of these two.
Hantek has much better software application that enables not only oscilloscope, but DMM and AWG as well. However, for the AWG I cannot find a way how to import waveform manually (based on demo app w/o instrument, manual and videos), only draw by mouse.... For both oscilloscope and DMM you can export data in a convenient way. For oscilloscope the exported waveform has always 1200 points, approx 100 pts per div.
The approach to oscilloscope functionality is also different - Hantek always displays single waveform trace (with significant jitter and unstability), while Owon has two acquisition modes (Peak and High) and is able to display something like overlay of mentioned 10.000 acquisition or so, which is very close to analog behavior/data.presentation.
Hantek has much better operational battery life, Owon wins in standby life. Hantek has much better PC application (including quite nice Math enabling FFT, A+B, A-B, AxB), with more straightforward control, OWON supports remote control (even data acquisition) using SCPI, which can be great!!!! However, SCPI enables control for oscilloscope and generator only, not for DMM. And for the generator, you can only controll it, no upload of data samples....
I have also read that Hantek has DC isolated USB interface.... as a result, Both product have significant advantages in certain aspects:
Hantek - power consumption, generator, way better PC software (access to all measurement functions), FW updates, pass/fail crietria for waveforms (refs + deviation), probably also built quality + isolation of USB (haven't verified)
Owon - trace presentation+acquisition in oscilloscope, handling, display, standby power consumption, remote control of some functions via SCPI, truRMS DMM,
BTW, you can edit waveforms via a CSV file (I showed that in one of my videos) with the Hantek.
@@KerryWongBlog you mean for the awg? Coul you provide a link? Thank you..... Still amazing how one tool enables this, another that, but both just part of the functionality desired....
@@82sledge If you go to the product page hantek.com/products/detail/13174 you will see a download section, the software download contains everything you need to control the 2D72.
@@KerryWongBlog Thank You Kerry, but I think there is some misunderstanding. I have this SW already installed and there are many posibilities how to export data to various formats. However, I haven't seen any option in the SW (in DEMo mode the AWG is not working), how you can upload your own data to the Hantek's generator, only drawing signal by mouse.... This is whai I was asking. And is sad that there is no protocol for Hantek to enable remote control as for Owon. However, for Owon you can control only SCOPE features and its PC app suports SCOPE/AWG modes only as well (probably using the same protocol), but still no way how to upload waveform to AWG even if you can access OWON as USB storage.... So even if they look so identical, they are actually very different almost in every function, UI approach etc....
@@82sledge Yes I pointed this out in my comparison video. For the OWON you can't upload your arbitrary waveform at all and it could be a deal breaker for folks need that functionality. For the 2D72 though you can design your waveforms using a CSV file. I demonstrated that in my review video for the 2D72.
Ive been looking for a reasonably priced portable scope and the Owon is better in almost every way. I don't need fancy software to upload waveforms. The high standby current of the hantek is completely acceptable. A battery powered meter should not draw any current at all when off. Its obviously not a real power switch.
I noticed that the HanteK retains settings after being powered off, and back on. That memory storage feature comes at some minor power occupation cost. I prefer the longer battery life when in use, as you never know how long troubleshooting may take.

Saludos, sabe si el Hantek puede salvar en el equipo (sin computador), para luego descargar? El manual no me deja claro. Estoy interesado y sigo pensando este como una mejor opción.
@@coordinaciondetecnologiaei8732 que tal, se puede salvar en el equipo la forma de onda, hace como una captura de pantalla, pero no guarda las valores de voltaje ni frecuencia ni nada, solo como para ver una captura de pantalla. De la forma de onda, no es bueno para eso, además bastante difícil de entrar a los menú para salvar y luego ver lo guardado, el Hantek no es bueno en ese función.
Your sheet omits USB functionality!
From your experience, what is the difference in the PC Software?
Hantek's PC software is very comprehensive, everything you can control on the Oscilloscope you can control in software. Whereas for the OWON, the software is very limited. You can only use it as virtual scope, that's about it.
Thanks for the link.
From what I see, the Hantek is a slower, than the Owon. But both have update-rates far below from USB Scopes. Maybe 1 or 2s per frame.
I got my HDS242S today. Seems to be pretty nice. One thing I have found is it will not charge or connect using real USB-C. So a dedicated USB-C charger will not work and connecting it to a windows machine with USB-C will not work. If you use a USB 2/3 to C cable it works fine and you can use a USB 2/3 to female USB C and then used a USB-C to C cable.
I put my RF Frequency Synth on it and check it's response. The frequency measurement limit is 47.9MHz, anything past that and its won't give a reading. But it displays waveforms way past 100MHz, though with 250MS/s Youre going to have aliasing issues if you go high. So I think the hardware is the same on the 40, 70, and 100MHz units, they just crippled the measurement. Wonder if they can be hacked. Bet that's why they dont post the firmware updates online.
But this is all fine for me, if I need faster and slightly less portable I have my LeCroy Waverunner and a Tek 2465.
So after messing around a bit I found the USB-C cable work in one position, flip it over and it does not work. So it sounds like they did not wire the connector in right.

can someone chime in who uses oscilloscopes for automotive on what the bare minimum specs for a scope you recommend/what device you would recommend for a diy automotive user new to scopes? With so many choices my heads spinning.i just want somthing that will get me through most diagnosis but not somthing useless nor overkill.
I know this comment is from 9 months ago, but if this is still something you're looking for an answer on, you can use either of these for automotive. I have the Owon, and I'll use it early on in a diagnostic, especially if I was already in that area to start with using the Owon as a multimeter. Or in a tight space under a "dog house" in a motorhome when I don't want to take out my Pico and a laptop.
Regarding "bare minimum specs", it's not as easy as that, but as a reference point, a very common automotive specific scope that a lot of people use is the 4225A picoscope. Comparing the Owon at least against those specs ( not all of these will impact every type of, but worth noting ):
Pico has a sampling rate of 400MS/s vs 250MS/s in the Owon.
Pico has a 20MHz bandwidth, this Owon is higher, and the cheaper 40MHz Owon still has the same other stats, so you could go with the cheaper one.
Pico has 12-bit resolution, I *think* Owon has 8-bit.
You can look up what each attribute means to see if it would impact what you want to do.
Beyond that, one of the huge differences you're going to deal with is what automotive specific software is going to do for you. Especially with the Pico. It will automatically convert things like mV to amps, and maybe the most important feature for someone who is just starting is the waveform library. Which on top of doing all the conversions can overlay/stack your known good on top, while looking at your live feed come in on the bottom ( or vice versa ) and see not only that you have a signal, but what yours looks like versus what it *should* look like. This won't matter as much over time as you get familiar with sensors, and what they should look like, but it's a huge benefit early on.
One other note is regardless of the approach you take, and once you have an understanding of a scope is how to properly access the signals you're looking for. So if you're just doing this as a DIY with your one vehicle, see if you can find a PDF online or something with all the wiring diagrams for your generation. Otherwise, you may want to invest in something like ALLDATA, or something that may not only get access to your wiring diagrams, but also provide specific instructions on which wire is a signal wire, power, ground, etc, so that you're properly backprobing the correct wires.
Lastly, Pico constantly maintains their software, and it's quite mature after all of these years.
In summary, every tool has a purpose, so you can use this for automotive, but if you were going to spend $200 and only ever use it for automotive, and have a Windows laptop or maybe even a desktop on a cart, I think you would get better results out of the Pico, especially if you're not familiar with an oscilloscope yet.
If you are familiar with an oscilloscope, don't mind having to do some conversions, like the idea of the multimeter/multiple purpose unit in a smaller footprint, and are going to work on things other than vehicles, then one of these units may be an easy choice.
I ultimately went with the Owon, one of multiple reasons being the TrueRMS.
I would like you to bring to your channel a review of the FNIRSI 1C15 and comparison with the Hantek 2D72, since it is a lighter, smaller and cheaper oscilloscope, but it promises superior performance to the Hantek, and for about 80 u $$, FNIRSI is a company that is starting, but is giving a lot compared to the low cost of its equipment.
Me gustaría que trajera a su canal una revisión del FNIRSI 1C15 y comparación con el Hantek 2D72, ya que es un Osciloscopio mas liviano, pequeño y económico, pero promete prestaciones superiores al Hantek, y por unos 80 u$$, FNIRSI es una empresa que está comenzando, pero está dando mucho comparado al bajo costo de sus equipos.
Don't believe what fnirsi "promises". Most of the specs they claim are complete lies. The 5012h pocket scope for example is utter crap. 100Mhz, 500Mega samples / sec my ass. Its 30Mhz, 125Msps at best.
@@simontay4851 It worth to add some money and buy some Hantek 2c43 or Owon.
Hi, I work fixing audio gear, FNIRSI scopes are totally useless for my job, minimun division per volt is 50mv in all models.

Completamente de acuerdo, el mínimo de 50mV/división en los Fnirsi 1013 y 1014, los limita mucho, y espero se den cuenta los diseñadores para resolver ese grave detalle. Actualmente estoy usando un Sigpeak 2512G, de 10mV/div y estoy encantado, me funciona mejor y más preciso que el Hantek 2D70, y tiene 128k de memoria de profundidad contra los 6k del Hantek o 10k del OWON.

@@sergiogalpon Yo reparo audio High End y utilizo mi querido y primitivo Fluke 99b que tiene 1mv de sensibilidad mínima.
Además tengo un Agilent de 150 mhz que funciona muy bien.
Todos estos osciloscopios baratos sino es por un lado es por otro pero siempre tienen algún problema.
Saludos.
what i find funny is im staring at my hantek ho52 and its identical in everyway to the owon, something odd here
I must say for a field measurement instrument, for me, the hantek wins handsover: more rugged design, better battery life, better protected usb-c connector. If i need more than the Hantek can give me, personally i would use more precise (more expensive) lab equipment…
Hantek has better dac models also. Faster rates, etc.
I would like to see Hantek offer a vhf/UHF Spectrum Analyzer with a tracking generator . Any such plans?
Owon(Hanmatek) Or Hantek??
Anyone here that knows how these compare to Jinhan JDS6052S?
🤔🤔🤔....
El display (la pantalla) es muy pequeño!...
I wish the hantek had a 3.5" screen
I hate you! You have a wonderful spec analyzer! How did you support that 75 lbs. monster??? The HP 8500 series! JEALOUS!!
One thing when displaying the high frequencies from your sig generator, you MUST terminate the cable!!!! Otherwise, your measurements are meaningless due to reflections in the cable.
I still really like the Owon!
Thank you for doing this review!
OWON HD272S the Best 100%
