00:01 <t4nk_freenode> think that's a nice starting point... have some decent stable connections, at least won't have to worry about that

00:58 <azonenberg> So scopehal / ngscopeclient might be getting electronic load support soonish lol

00:58 <azonenberg> Just have to decide which one to buy

00:58 <azonenberg> and what to move in my lab to make space for it :p

13:59 <josuah> azonenberg: I suppose it will be 19 inch wide?

15:31 <d1b2> <johnsel> not bad buddy @t4nk_freenode

15:34 <d1b2> <johnsel> I do wonder if placing your taps in the middle of that board doesn't influence SI too much? Seems like you're getting awfully near a quarter wave length at 20mhz there

15:38 <t4nk_freenode> mmm, hadn't thought of that I must admit

15:39 <t4nk_freenode> but I've been messing before with the flying leads, I really don't have much experience with this mind

15:40 <t4nk_freenode> but I was unsettled by how it interfered

15:41 <t4nk_freenode> so I went with very short leads, and the black lead-ish things in the last picture are resistors; I found that was the way to get them to work with the fx3

15:42 <t4nk_freenode> same leads on the fx2 did fail btw, I guess it's because there must already be some there or so

15:45 <t4nk_freenode> but I'm back to usb issues now ;)... turns out I really need iommu disabled here

15:46 <t4nk_freenode> and then there's the fact that the closed source fx3 driver for sigrok won't let me sample at 100MHz

15:46 <t4nk_freenode> I'm supposed to increase the buffer size they said, *sigh*

15:57 <azonenberg> josuah: yes, the ultimate goal is a 24x 1GbaseT + 1x 10G SFP switch

15:57 <azonenberg> oh wait the load

15:57 <azonenberg> (wrong channel lol)

15:57 <azonenberg> i just ordered the entry level siglent

15:57 <azonenberg> gonna shove it on the back of my bench behind the soldering station because i'm out of racj space

15:58 <azonenberg> well ok i have 6U free between the two racks but it's all allocated for gear i'll use more often

17:01 <josuah> if only I could use the ceiling and floor for fitting equipment...

17:01 <josuah> in my case it might be more about small area than abundance of equipement though

17:02 <azonenberg> yeah i have a total of 400 square feet to work with

17:03 <azonenberg> but that has to fit the wet bench, the soldering/test bench, the optical microscopy bench, storage, two racks of servers and networking gear, etc
