From page three of the manual: The probes are factory compensated and normally will not require adjustment unless the setting of the compensation is disturbed. The compensation should be checked

I just received the P6056 and P6057 probes I purchased through eBay. They appear to be in good condition, and work. Fast-rise waveforms are reproduced quite faithfully through both probes. But I

I should mention that De-Oxit does a great job of cleaning contacts, pots, etc. I saw it at Radio Shack. Regards, Dick, W1KSZ
