I am looking for a source of good quality clip leads. In the day,
I would get them at Radio Shack. They were 12-18 inches long and
had small alligator style clips with plastic hoods at each end.

The last few times I have bought them (mainly at our now closed
ham radio store) They have been ones with two fatal flaws. The
plastic hoods are made of a material that when squeezed slips and
slides between the fingers making opening the jaw of the clip almost
impossible.

The other issue is worse. After a few attempts at using them the
two jaws making up the clip splay out sideways making connecting
to something truly impossible.

I don't want to waste more $$ on this type. Anyone know of a good
source?

You probably will be finding good ones at the Chinese e-retailer
Banggood.com if not try AliExpress.com

One of my Go-To sources is Marlin P Jones: https://www.mpja.com/

Since you never disclosed your QTH, you're liable to get suggestions of
outlets you cannot easily do business with. Your call and your
reference to Radio Shack leads me to believe your QTH is probably USA.
Marlin P Jones is USA.
