There appears to be two variants of this captive lead. The picture in my manual shows an in-line white plastic "plug", as does Tekwiki. It is given as p/n 195-0095-00 "Lead, test: BNC" and the manual also lists p/n 348-0301-00 "grommet: plastic, 0.312 ID x 0.43 inch OD" associated with the lead. However, my 7CT1N has a black lead with a double-ended connector forming a tee with the lead. One end mates with a BNC male, the other with a BNC female, but still only one connection, no shield. I might add that I purchased the 7CT1N from Dennis Tillman about a year ago.

The plug has finally broken off the captive lead on my 7CT1N, the one that goes out to a vertical amp or time-base depending on which side you have it installed. I'm sure I'm not the first victim of this. I can obviously replace it with an ordinary BNC plug, and am doing so temporarily (I hope), but it rattles around etc., and it also has a redundant earth connection. I'm wondering if there is something more suitable, short of the unobtainium (I presume) entire 195-0095-00 assembly, that is maybe made of plastic and/or only has the inner connecting ring.
Thanks in advance
