I went looking for the Pro-Log programmer in the storage garage last 
night, but only found a few of the adapters.  I'll look some more.
If I can find it I'll dust it off & see if it still works.  ALL the 
memory in this thing are 1702s, the processor is a 4004!  Needless to 
say, the biggest thing it will handle is 2716s.

But it will do ancient!  IF it still works.  Give me a couple days.
