Alas not. But if the device works if you cool it, can't you read it out
when it's been cooled? Surely the SDK-85 has some kind of I/O port
you could dump it to. And then burn the bits into an 8755 as you suggested.
Yes indeed. That will be plan B if Dave is unable to read his 8355 in
his PROM programmer.
The tty interface on this SDK-85 was built for 20mA current loop so I'll
have to either rework that to RS232 or invent a new method to offload.
But not a big deal really.
I'm thinking now that it might be nice to have the monitor source typed in
so maybe I will take on that challenge. I've yet to encounter a method
of scanning and OCRing dot-matrix printouts that works so I think that
just leaves typing it in.
