eeprom programmer/reader for asteroids & friends

[Wahoobies]

Hello, any suggestions on a good eeprom programmer/reader to use with windows or linux? Starting with asteroids, want to replace the old roms.. so looking for the blanks + a reader/writer combo for PC.. maybe an eeprom puller tool too?

any suggestions appreciated

Seems a lot of folks like GQ-4x4. Anyone have experience of it?

Not used the GQ-4x4 myself, but I think a few people on here have got one.

For asteroids, any eprom programmer that can handle standard 2716’s should suffice.

I use two programmers myself, a Minipro TL866 and a Batronix BX-32P Barlino II. Between them both they can handle most eproms (but not all). I know the Batronix can do the 2716’s. I use Windows software for both programmers.

For an eprom puller, just use a small flat blade screwdriver to carefully remove the chip from the socket.

Gx4x4
Is good for me .

Has an add on for a range of chips it isn’t compatible with right outta the box..
Pretty sure you can down load the software for it and just run through the list of compatible chips 🙌
