They work!! Even into shortwave!!
Well done Frank!
Re the CRO loading. I quite often use the loosest coupling I can when
aligning things, even to the point of touching the probe to an insulated
part of the board or attaching a small "antenna" to the probe tip.
Whether this works well depends on the frequency of course!

above 5MHZm when that dawned on me, and I switched the probe to X10,
