...if I want to shell out the cash for a 300MHz oscilloscope, or if I should just get the 100MHz version. I decided to go with the 300MHz one for digital audio and PWM purposes (24.576MHz bit rates on 24/192 and cleaning up PWM amp signal edges to prevent messing up the FM band).
It turns out that, as soon as I power up the 300MHz scope, I discover that the big tower two blocks up the road is the local Channel 12 broadcast tower. Kilowatts, just two blocks away. Kilowatts. Two blocks away.
Frequency? 204MHz.
Any chance February 2009 will change this? I can't exactly sell the house to get away from the tower, and short of kicking in the 20MHz BW limit it puts a nice small little sinusoid right on top of everything I do.
