Here is your monthly Test and Measurement update from Pico Technology.


1.  PicoScope 3000 Series PC oscilloscopes

Since the launch of our new range of USB connected PC oscilloscopes in July we have been overwhelmed by demand. We would like to offer our sincere apologies to customers who have had to wait for several weeks for delivery.

Currently we expect to ship all orders that were placed before the 1st October by the end of the month. Lead times for newly placed orders are currently running at between four and eight weeks and we expect it will be a few more months before these popular oscilloscopes are available from stock.
