hey all, this is my first post here, hope you're all doing fine.
I need to buy cables and test leads for my novice lab setup, but I'm not sure about what to get (ie, what quality i need)
I need some combination of banana-to-banana patch cables, alligator clips, BNC-to-BNC and BNC-to-testleads to hook up the breadboard, powersupply, oscilloscope, DMM, and so on.
My interest is in projects that'll be in the 144-440MHz range, but I'm not which cables would be appropriate for this range. Do I even need to consider frequency effects? I checked out Allied Electronics, and the datasheets for their patch cables don't make any reference to frequency usage (http://www.alliedelec.com/test-equipment/test-leads/).
I did some searching in this topic and didn't find anything recent that matched my question. Thanks.
