Can anyone tell me what Rigol I should buy and to what I can turbo-charge it through firmware hacks? Is it possible to buy something entry-level (say, $500) and make it into something that I can decode Modbus messages with, and also look at the exact waveform of my house 230V electrical installation?
(these questions probably show how little I know about these things and I know how someone who doesn't know anything shouldn't be messing with electrical installations. Humor me.)

- ProZsolt 7y agoThe DS1054Z is currently the cheapest, but it is a few years old. If you have the money I would buy the MSO5072 it came out last year. Look for tests. Dave's EEVBlog is a good point to start.
