Test probes recommendation
Uni:
Hi guys
I have a frequency counter (HP5315a) but no probes.
Im going to use this for calibration purposes of audio gear only (synthesizers, drum machines, etc etc)
I’m a bit confused as to which probes to use.
Would anyone recommend something ?
Can I use this one maybe ?

MiDi:
You should be fine with bnc to alligator-clips for audio range, no need for an oscilloscope probe for high bandwidth.

I agree with alligator clips for audio use. You can also have an unterminated BNC connector/cable and solder when necessary. Probes are usually not used for frequency counters.
Uni:
I see :) Thanks for the replies!

This is basically the same as what I use most of the time. I got all mine separately though, and from different sources, so I can't vouch for the quality of these.
