If it's a dual binding-post/banana-jack on 3/4" centers, adapters are
easy to find. Try a search for "bnc banana adapter" on eBay.

Even if these adapters don't happen to have the right spacing for your
'scope, you can always buy one, and a couple of short jumper cables,
to make the connection.

Or, wire up a female BNC jack to a couple of wire pigtails.




yup,

At the price of the adapters unless the probe is high dollar, you can get a
whole new probe rated over 50 MHz for the same price. I bought a coupld to
use with a 100 MHz scope and can not tell much differance in them an a
Tectronix probe rated for the same frequency range. That is why I said just
cut off the end unless he has a bnc connector laying around he can just
pigtail a couple of wires to.
