Great little video. And very useful for me since I had just purchased a kit but couldnt find any instructions or parts list. I assembled the surface mount parts using a really neat hot air gun that I purchased from AliExpress for 20 bucks. It works very well and has controllable temperature and flow rate. Also cools itself down before switching off. My scope worked first time to my great surprise too and is as fiddly to use as yours. It has slightly different firmware to yours but the same sort of control interface. It is basically useless but a lot of fun to build and play around with 🙂
Thank you for the ride-along... Good Info-Tainment and outstanding post-production skills - kept it interesting :O). I had never heard the the HP/sync reference (dig) before.. interesting however. I do like hearing from the people that were in the trenches as apposed to the sales brochures. Oh, and yes, very COoL little scope'ett. My kingdom for a 2nd encoder yes?. But it's design is still admirable. I also see I've been subbed but didn't realize it. My bad. Time to enable some BELL ringing. Cheers from So.CA, USA, 3rd House On the Right.
I've just got some smd practise boards from Bangood. Got solder paste and tiny tweezers. Never used smd parts before so I think I'm in for a steep learning curve. Cute little scope!

Better resolution than my RadioShack ProbeScope!
I just bought a Siglent 200 MHz scope a couple of weeks ago, if I had only waited I could have gotten a scope at a fraction of the price!

I did a DSO138 and that was a pain for me. I can't imagine soldering that. Good Job.
I would soon throw it into a corner out of frustration. LOL.
i got mine working :-) my rework broke so i had to hand solder the IC
Great fun! If you had put a knob on the encoder, it might have been easier but we got there in the end! LOL
It might be an interesting video just to show the soldering process that you used
I have shown that in several videos: th-cam.com/video/Cp927Tx0dmQ/w-d-xo.html

SO what you are saying is that, unlike an HP, this one is worth the money. ;-)
That is so cute! Lol. I want one!
i prefer to do by hand than use the oven
so very tiny!
Ok I’m frustrated just by watching.
