The rate if the USART is 9600.  The prinf() function does work within the
interrupt, but I'm not sure if it's causing some edges to not be detected.
This would explain why there would only be 5 edges instead of more.

I will try to set up my code so it buffers up the incoming data and then
prints it to the serial port at a later time (ie outside the interrupt
routine).

Thanks for the hint/advice.
