[Heath] Oscilloscope

[Robert Groh]

There are also a wide variety of probe's available on eBay - I bought a pair for my Tek 454 scope - pretty inexpensive and they work well for hobbyist use. You should check the input Z of the IO-102 - some of the probe's have internal resistors.  I would suspect that the Heathkit manual had instructions on building a scope probe - giving, if any, the value of any series resistor in the probe.  You can make your own using a piece of PVC pipe for a tip, the body from a felt tip marker, etc.  At the frequencies you will be using almost anything is going to work.

Make your own or buy something at Radio Shack.  The original probes were nothing more than stranded insulated wire with a banana plug on one end and an alligator clip on the other.  I think there was an optional probe but can't remember what it was...maybe an rf probe???

I recently was given a IO-102 scope but it does not have any probes.  Can anyone tell me where I can get probes for this model?  Thanks.
