Alternatively, I have a serial-based programmer that
ISTR has an interactive hex dump feature - you talk to it over a
2-way RS-232 link and can dump data to it, or send interactive
commands. There's no "program" or "copy" button. It's a Bay
Technical
Associates 953B. Haven't used it in years. Think it only does 1Kbit
to 8Kbit devices and no funny pinout stuff like thge 2532.

This sounds like my BTA programmer. I don't have it with me, so I can't
check the model number, but it sounds familiar.
My recollection is that it pretty much only does 2716s, 2732s, probably
2764s and maybe 2708s, but I'm not sure about those. It's not very
flexible.
I once saw an 8" floppy for it, but we never used it. We used the BTA
programmer on a VAX, and I think the software was for CP/M.
I, too, have not used it in years. I've been using my B&C Microsystems
UP600a (which will do as large as a 27C040, in two halves).
