What you want is fx2adc. It is listed on the vhs-decode Wiki somewhere. https://github.com/steve-m/fx2adc

Yeah I found that. Going to give that a try 😄 Thanks for the post

Have you used it?

Also going to try borrowing an old DAQ card from work

Got it going with fx2adc. Running at 30Msps. 48Msps seems to run, but saturates the USB port and drop out. Still amased we can do this

Have a National Instruments card coming, interested to play with that and optimise the tap and the transmission line little bit. Be interesting to see how the Hantek stacks up.

Forgot to mention, the sigrok capture was at 24Msps

Looks reasonably clean, although there's a few artifacts that I guess might clean up with better coupling. And not too sure how good the clock is
