Finding probes for my cheapy o-scope

I got a BP Precision 1403A on ebay for almost nothing but there were
no probes with it. I saw what appeared to be generic , one size fits
all, in Jameco cat. Is this true? Or are they specific to ea
machine?

If you want a perfect match and performance that meets the
manufacturer's specs then only the original equipment probes will
do. On the other hand, a good quality after-market probe will work
just fine, especially since the scope itself just might possibly
not be up to original specs.

I couldn't ever find the probes specific to this unit. I'll get the
Jameco once for my 10$ scope

Make sure that the calibration range of the probe includes the actual
input capacitance of your scope input.
