learning all about de-emphasis has been really eye-opening

@miek Looks like a nice scope :)

@tnt @miek 40 GSa/s. 😳 Equivalent time sampling?

@tom_verbeure @tnt @miek I mean, that scope doesn't look extremely high-end, but, um Lecroy and keysight both do oscilloscopes >60 GHz input bandwidth in direct sampling, R&S is at 40 GSa/s, too, and sampling rates in COTS optical modulation analyzers are 256 GSa/s…

@funkylab @tnt @miek But those are contemporary scopes. This one has the UI of my 25 year old 54831B.

@tom_verbeure @tnt @miek I mean, yes, these are Agilent-descendant knobs, but if you're going tektronik, wouldn't that put 100 GSa/s direct somewhere in the 2008/9 range (wavemaster 8zi)?
