[Elecraft] Counter probe and RF probe assembly

[Craig Rairdin]

C1 is a regular old brown "103" cap. It's not "axial" at least as I
understand the word.

It's always possible I'm looking at the wrong part or I got it wrong, too.
But I remember being stumped at the same point you are until I found this
particular capacitor. I think it was in the same envelope with the rest of
the probe parts.

I can actually transmit)

Can someone tell me what the 10pF axial lead capacitor looks like for the
counter probe? I have looked through all of the caps that I have sorted and
cannot find an axial lead cap that is obvious. Is this cap in a package that
looks like a resistor or inductor? I have to very small beige "resistor"
looking parts that are color coded Brown-black-Brown and the other is
Grn-Brn-Grn-Gld. I am sure that the one with 4 bands is a resistor, but not
sure about the other 3 band piece. Sorry for the stupid questions, but I am
used to the "normal" packaging of caps and I see no axial lead caps anywhere
in the ones that I have. The only other one that I have that looks suspect
is the cardboard mounted ceramic orange cap that has a "1" on the face, but
I am sure that it is a 1uF and not 10 pF?

What do you think?
