Sencore‑Style Probe Sets for SG80 — Custom Designed, Factory‑Quality, Fully Compatible
Description
Available here are custom‑engineered, modern reproductions of the original Sencore probe sets used with the Sencore SG80 AM/FM Stereo Signal Generator.
These are not generic probes — they are precision‑built replacements, created directly from the original Sencore schematics to ensure identical electrical performance and proper operation with both instruments.
Every probe uses a commercially manufactured and machine‑assembled PCB, produced in a reputable PCB factory for maximum consistency and reliability.
Each housing is custom‑designed and 3D‑printed, featuring contrasting color text for a clean, professional appearance that echoes the original Sencore aesthetic.
If you’re restoring an SG80 or SG165, replacing missing probes, or completing a bench setup, these are the closest you will find to factory‑fresh originals.

What’s Included
SG80 Probe Set
A complete, period‑correct replacement set containing:
NOT the standard Amazon 75-300 transformer. These are sourced from a high‑quality, period‑correct manufacturer. Performance and construction matches the original Sencore balun very nicely.
Custom PCB, machine‑assembled, built from the original Sencore schematic.Contains the OEM 1N774 or 1N774A Germanium diode. I have a limited supply and once gone I will have a new design with Schottky diodes that should perform just as good.
Fully compatible, functionally identical to the original AM pad.
This set restores full SG80 functionality exactly as Sencore intended.

Why These Are Better Than Vintage Originals
Original Sencore probes are now decades old and often:
- Missing
- Cracked or brittle
- Using obsolete germanium diodes
- Electrically unstable
These replacements deliver the same performance, but with new components, fresh housings, and zero aging effects.

Notes
These are custom‑manufactured replacements, not original Sencore‑branded accessories.
They are engineered to match the function, behavior, and performance of the originals using modern manufacturing methods.
