Wow! Talk about luck....
If you'll recall, I bought a very nice Amana Radarange RRL-9TB at the thrift for next to nothing. As with most thrift merchandise, only the Radarange itself was there, no manual or probe. Searches for the probe turned up nothing, nada, zip - it has been discontinued by Amana. Google, Craigslist and eBay searches all came up empty, until today....
I was just about to post to this list with a pic of the correct probe, hoping one of you might have one, or would be willing to keep an eye out in thrifts. But since there is a candymaker probe that is different, I wanted to post a pic of that, too, so that I could 'splain the difference - I didn't want anyone wasting time over the wrong candymaker probe when it does not work for meats, casseroles, etc. Sooooo, I hied myself thither to eBay, to search for a nice pic of the wrong candymaker probe to go along with the pic I already had of the correct temp probe.
SHEZAM! I found a photo, all right - for a candymaker auction that INCLUDED THE TEMP PROBE TOO! It appears from the auction pic (below), that Suzy Homemaker decided that her Amana candymaker's box was the perfect place to squirrel away the temp probe for her Radarange. You can see the temp probe I was looking for (black cord) beside the candymaker probe (white cord).
Yes, I bought it, yes, it's on its way, and yes, I'm happy.
