Low pass filter 20kHz

I am looking for a low pass filter around 20kHz to smooth a voltage
before passing it to an oscilloscope. The power requirements are
nominal and the transition region is not very important, Bessel, Cheby-
whatever, doesn't matter as long the general effect is to squish the
high frequencies above, say, 20-30kHz.

I was hoping there would be a simple component like a feed-thru
terminator I could buy off-the-shelf for around the same price (~$20)
but I can't seem to find a vendor. Anyone know of one?

The frequency is so low that it doesn't 'feed through' type construction.

Why not build your own ? A first order filter just needs one resistor and one
capacitor.

The secondary of most 12 VDC transformers will squash just about
everything. Otherwise try Radio Shack. They have a selection of
inductors...
