K2 measuring non-RF AC voltages with a DC meter

Wayne Conrad
My poor old multimeter doesn't measure sub-volt, non-RF AC voltages, as
is needed for some K2 signal tracing (such as sidetone).  Could the RF
probe assembly circuit be modified so that I can use my DC meter to
measure, for example, audio frequency AC?

Just to be clear, I'm not asking if to modify the existing RF probe;
rather, I'm asking if different component values for the RF probe
circuit would turn it into an AF probe.
