Just completed mine counter probe. Look in the little yellow bag. The bag
should have the tip a couple glass diodes along with the cap. axial cap,
grain of rice describes the size, yellowish orange, with 10j marking.
I headed the advice of the other reply and
I soldered the cap to the center conductor of the coax quickly. Then on the
tip side I put a heat sink between the cap and the tip. The mass of the tip
must be 10 times the mass of the cap and I didn't want to melt the cap. It
took quite a bit of heat on the tip to get a good joint.
