My intelligence test came back negative.
Very hard doing valid measurements inside running digital system, as probe wires act as antenna to pick up digital signals - check what same probe arrangement gives when measuring ground.
To make more or less valid measurements, you have to minimise loop area between scope ground and signal - try winding scope earth round probe. For best measurements, use coax with BNC at scope end, soldered to board under test with minimum lead lengths - you probably want to put say 100Ohm resistor with very short leads to isolate circuit from coax capacitance in signal line.
