Re: Testing Scope Probes
A passive scope probe is more complex the just a resistor divider. Take a look at the original patent for a scope probe. Allen Hill KI4QCK

Re: Testing Scope Probes
Yes. The typical instrumentation grade RF source (eg. signal generator) can be modeled as an ideal voltage source in series with an ideal 50 ohm resistance (impedance). It is a desirable condition in

Re: Optiion upgrade HP 8753C/B
I think the A9 CC Jumper is in position E33-E34. See the picture attached but I am not 100% sure because there were different A9 CPU boards for those series and they have slightly different layout.

Re: Testing Scope Probes
A BNC sleeve is exactly what it sounds like it is. It fits over the bare probe tip, making a press fit connection to the inside of a female BNC connector so that you can make a good, albeit high

Re: Testing Scope Probes
The 10073C should have come with a BNC adaptor sleeve. So should your "good" probe. To eliminate all loading and source imedance issues connect a BNC T to the signal generator output and directly
