Well, I finally got some time to play in the basement again this weekend, so I thought I'd have a go a freshening the PROM sockets on my VT52 to see if that makes it less flaky. Pulled the PROMs and gave them a read on my DATA I/O. The four I have are indeed bit-identical to the dumps posted by Mattis above, so I thought I'd note that here for completeness.
