    Testing chips in circuit with an Oscilloscope

    (for idiots perhaps...). I've got a Simasimac reloaded SE/30 board and I suspect the GLU chip is at fault. It cleaned up well but was kinda rough when I got it off the bombed board. I have checked all pin continuity several times and everything checks out to destinations. No bridges also...
