We're working on that. I've found a stash of old **UNPROGRAMMED** PROMs
and I have a programmer that can program them but I need the correct
plug-in unit for it. Once I find one I think we'll be home free.
While I'm at it I might as well post my plea for the programming module
aagin.
I picked up a couple of Pro-Log M900, M920 and M980 programmers lately.
I want to burn some BiPolar PROMs and I need a Pro-Log PM 9048 "Intel
Generic" personality module. It will look something like this
<

for other Pro-Log parts and I have parts to trade so if you have anything
that you're willing to part with send me a list. Here's more pictures on
my Pro-Log stuff. No text or descriptions yet, just pictures.
