Speaking of Scopes

[Russ]

I have an HP 54602A digital scope that I picked up at auction many moons
ago, without manual or probes. While the manual hasn't mattered much, I've
been using cheap-arse 20Meg probes, which have been fine for the majority of
stuff I do, but it is a 150MHz unit, and I wouldn't mind having similarly
specced prbes - can anyone suggest where to get decent (affordable) probes?

Russ.

I don't think it is likely anymore but I once picked up some 100MHz probes
from a company which was disposing of old australian army surplus stuff.
This was in Bridgewater Vic. That was real surplus, not the scout shop
stuff. Anyway there was a few of these probes and the disposal company did
not know what they were because they were amongst truck parts, they priced
them at $4 each based on the attractive plastic pouches they came in. Maybe
they still dispose of stuff this way?
