Re: Prom Burner

[WEG1192@aol.com]

Dan,

I bought a Pocket Programmer last week. I searched for a month and finally 
decided this was the best for my needs. The PP works off a parallel port 
which makes it a very portable device. The PP can also run as a DOS Window in 
Windows  98. Some of the other burners have ISA cards that won't fit in a 
laptop so those were out of the question for me.

You will need a double row pin header in order to read the EPROM in the 
MEMCAL without unsoldering the EPROM (a major PITA). Take a look at the new 
FAQ section in the GMECM and it will tell you where to get the header. I 
bought mine at a local radio parts supply store (forget Radio Shack). As for 
an Eraser, I have finally decided to build my own with a G15T8 ultraviolet 
bulb and a standard 18" light fixture from Home Depot. All the Erasers I've 
inquired about will not accept the MEMCAL. Check out intronics website on how 
to build an eraser yourself.
