4 channel scopes, budget. Siglent or Rigol? (lemmy.world)

I don't need much more than 100Mhz but I'd like to have serial/CAN decoding. I could probably get away with a 2 channel, but it seems like a lot of the extra features like wifi control and digital channels only come on the 4 channels like the 1204X-E, plus it has some waveform generation (though maybe that's an addon?).

Anyone have a budget model they'd recommend? The DS1504 seems like it's getting a bit long in the tooth and the price point doesn't really seem competitive with better scopes.

EEVblog is probably the one you mean. I have gone to that a few times, maybe I'll specifically look up scopes he's reviewed. His voice drives me up the wall so I kind of avoid it, even though the channel has some good stuff.

Siglent is the way I'm leaning at this point from what I've read in other places.
