EPROMS

If you need a TF2.7b or 6pack EPROM to participate, I may be able to help.

I have a few 27C256 EPROMS which most TNCs use which I can program for you. It would help if you could supply a replacement 27C256 EPROM as my stocks have gotten low (since playing with TNCs).

Old motherboards may be a source of EPROMS, don't throw them out without stripping them of EPROMs (and shunts etc). The ROMS on older motherboards will usually be 2 x 27C256, less old, 1 x 27C512, and new ones are FLASH ROMS 29Fxxxx.

To be useable, they have to be remove without damaging the pins, the label removed, glue residue removed, and cleaned (petrol seems ok for this) again without damaging the pins, and transported in static protected packaging.
