Yeah. It's particularly bad with those H-bridge chips.. the signal pins are sandwiched between power pins and output driver pins. And most of the signals are paired across the chip (opposite pins tied together, like the cute yellow jumpers above).

I can hardly wait to view the carnage once the new scope arrives.

We'll see if that new rig is any good or not once it arrives here.
