  1. Apparently, it is possible to buy a pre-flashed Gotek to work with #Tektronik #TDS700 #TDS600 scopes. For 170€ incl. shipping.

    Lets see if I can do this for ~40€.

    Ingredients:
    1. #Gotek SFRM72-DU26 (~33€ shipped)
    2. #flashfloppy firmware to make it 1.44 MB
    3. OLED display (2.5€ shipped) 128x32px
    4. 26 pin 1 mm "type B" 200 mm flat flex (3.5€ shipped)

    The flat flex is required to reverse the pinning.
    The OLED is optional but cheap and a huge debugging aid.
    Flashfloppy can be flashed with two USB-A to USB-C cables, an USB-C extension Adapter (A to A cable) and a piece of wire, so basically free (had the parts handy).

    The flat flex will arrive at ~end of december. So maybe this will be an xmas gift to myself...
