for years, that was a major distinction between HP and TEK 'scopes. TEK 'scopes would trigger on things HP models would miss. In the late '70's TEK cheapened their trigger circuits such that they were as "good" as HP's.

Rhode und Schwartz whose equipment I knew in the 80's as "better than excellent" has just started making scopes. I am looking forward to the first user reviews. One thing in the litterature states the trigger works off the digitized signals - interesting.
