[Test-Equipment] Probe Identification

[Bob Kulow]

According to my 1980 TEK catalog, the P6028 probe is good for DC to 17 MHz.

The length of the cable determines the capacitance:
3.5 feet  30pf
6 feet     47pf
9 feet     70pf
12 feet   92pf

All values are added to the input capacitance of the scope.

I don't have any information on the P6017, though.
