Get a used TDS-2xxx series used on ebay. I prefer Tek scopes, great trigger, and the TDS 210, TDS220 and their ilk continue to work very well. As to PC attach, yes, you can do that, but that will need some s/w.
Many people like the newer Chinese scopes; see https://youtu.be/S8jrpCoZyx8?si=oaI_gxOylYhOSp-m https://youtu.be/S8jrpCoZyx8?si=oaI_gxOylYhOSp-m but I have only limited experience with those. Their UI seems less obvious than Tek scopes.
The other very important specs besides what you've mentioned are # of channels, and highest operating frequency. Others today would be how fast is the ADC, how many bits, storage depth, post-capture analysis capabilities, and so much more.
- tverbeure 3y agoI have a lot of experience with Tek, HP and Siglent scopes. The Tek scopes are IMO some of the least intuitive. But if you want to remote control the scope, stay away from the Chinese ones: that part of the FW is often very buggy.
