Re: P6105 Probe


 

Hi Jeff,
This isn't what you were asking for exactly but I have a spare mustard color compensation box for the P6105 which I can send you if that will solve your problem. This would be for the 2 meter probe cable that you have.

It sounds like you may be confused by what you have. Tek distinguished the length of these probe cables and their matching compensation boxes by their color. RED was for 3 meters, MUSTARD was for 2 meters, and SILVER was for 1.5 meters. Your picture clearly shows a mustard cable and mustard compensation box so what is in your picture is a 2 meter cable and box.

You can have the mustard compensation box for $15 total (shipping is included anywhere in the US).
Contact me off list if you want it.

Any way to tighten these up where they connect ? The way the thing is made
it looks like a job for a machine shop...well not really.

I like the probe and it is the 3 meter version. It just is erratic when
moved around. Most of the trouble is in the connector shown at;

Is there a "right" way ? That was a good, _fairly_ expensive probe, like
$100 back in the 1970s so it is worth taking care of. I don't want to take
to the R D department. research development ? Hell no ! "Real Debauchery".
That's what I want to avoid.

Any suggestions ? I got ideas but i don't want to do anything "permanent".
