Hello to the group Joe here are the exact model numbers that I have and do indeed work. IOmega488a IOtech Micro 488a IOtech 488ex IOtech serial 488a Black Box 232 to 488a If I would run across other units at $5 as I have in the past I would indeed try the mod. I think the key to the discussion is the MPU board needs to actually have a eprom socket. Regards Paul.
