*************

A scope probe with 50 MHz bandwidth will be suficient. The bandwidth
of the probe is stated so that you will avoid attenuation issues at
high frequencies. Measurements above the rated bandwidth of the scope
probe will yield inaccurate measurement levels. If you are just
looking for the presence of a signal and the absolute level is not
needed then don't worry to much about the bandwidth of the scope
probe.
