BK oscilloscope model 1405 test leads?
#1

Somewhere along the line, I have come into possession of a BK 1405 oscilloscope. It sort of works, but I've never done anything thing to it or with it because of two reasons:

1) I haven't recapped it, yet, and
2) I have no test leads.

I have powered it up about a year ago, and it seems to work (it puts a sine wave on the CRT at least). It has what seem to be banana plug sockets where the test leads go.

I confess to absolute ignorance about the use of an oscilloscope in radio repair, but I'd kind of like to learn about it. Can anyone suggest the proper test leads for this model? I'm sure I can find the appropriate chapter in Levy's book or some radio repair course for instruction on how to use it.

BTW, I do NOT have a signal tracer, yet. SO that is on the "get" list soon.
