Gosh thanks friend. I never would have imagined about 300 Ohms being in that coax used for scope probes. Guess I'll just do what I figured I should do anyway and buy a proper set of twin alligator leads for my function generator. I know I could double terminate a piece of coax with bnc connectors and feed that to my scope, but I want the capability of the clips to connect to circuits I may build on a breadboard or whatnot. Good video!
