Seen before. It was a kit offered in the late 80s by some long-gone kit 
maker. They might have been sold at Heathkit or Lafayette stores, who often 
carried assembled consumer devices and third-party kits. I seem to recall 
it used fuse-programmed PROM chips as decoders. It's a very rare item. 
Cannot be googled.


I seem to recall that using proms as decoders was somewhat common at the 
time.  I know I’ve seen other projects using that same idea.  Maybe proms 
were cheaper than dedicated decoder chips or provided the ability to create 
custom patterns?
