Yeah, look around on the 'net for "logic probe", which will generally not
only show you high and low levels but also whether there's a pulse there or
not. These are designed to "stretch" brief pulses so that you get an
indication even if it's real short.

BTW, one of my first scopes came from a pawn shop. Took a little bit of work
to get it going, but I only paid $20 for it.
