Thanks for the info Rainer. I ended up picking up a Logic Probe from Radio
Shack as it was only $18. Even if its not top of the line, it should work
plenty fine for this job (and more later). If I get more serious about
building these kits and the extra stuff later, then perhaps I'll begin looking
into my own O-scope. I've seen 10MHz ones for about $250 and going up from
there in $$ and capability. Would be cool to own one but for now I'll stick
with what I have. Thanks again.
