[NJARC] Accurate Instrument Co. model 153

[Steve Boracchia]

I just got this signal generator/tracer and have no probes.  I replaced 
electrolytic and paper caps.  The unit seems to be working as all tubes and 
one light are on.  Does anyone know about this unit and where to get/make a 
probe?  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve
