[sdiy] Oscilloscope Adapter Box

[Dan Snazelle]

I use:


1. Tiptop STACKCABLE (allows bannana style stacking of 1/8" plugs) so I can have an audio signal and a scope feed from one output

2. 2x Kobiconn or similar 1/8" jack with long leads soldered to ground and to Signal tabs. (red and black)


3. I can then connect the leads to my scope probes anytime i like.  Those leads often go to my bench breadboards as well.




good luck !!!
