Unfortunately, when we did bipolar PROMs at work, it was not those
parts (I personally burned hundreds of 6309 256x8 PROMs, the same ones
used in the Apple Disk II card - I did make one spare set of Disk II
PROMs for myself).

Congrats on figuring it out though.  It's a great feeling to be able
to change a device model entirely by just jumpers and programmable
parts.
