Data I/O model IX and 1702A proms

Dwight, The early Data I/O burners took individual sets of digital/analog cards to program each prom or family. For models 1 through 9, these were separate cards. In Models 17 and 19, the same two cards were combined in a Card Pak (carrier) which snapped into the chassis just like the UniPaks. For the Intel 1702A and equivalents, the card set was the 909/919-1183-1 (909 meant the two cards alone, 919 is the same two cards in a programming pak carrier. In either case, the card set consisted of a "digital" card, 701-1173, and an "analog" card, 701-1183-1. The cards were joined by cable 709-1608. In addition, a special socket adapter, p/n 1047, was used for these PROMs. I have the programming pak carrier minus the socket adapter and with a set of 1063 cards installed. Unfortunately, I have no idea what the target PROM is for this card set. I do have the calibrator and 1702 adapter card for it but without the programming cards it really isn't too useful. Scooter (riatla) is one of the eBay "good guys" and would probably be willing to take a peek inside the chassis to see what cards are included. More to the point, I figured by now that you or one of the other listers would have come up with a modern programmer for the 1702A - can't be too difficult other than the -48v programming requirements and I expect a few others would be interested in the project if someone designed one.
