Hi all
I have a Racom 1300 morse code station Identifier. I am looking to see if
there is a way to reprogram the Prom in the unit. The company is no longer
active. The prom contains the call sign information. I know I could throw it
in the trash and buy something new but I hate doing that when all it would
take is to reprogram the Prom. Is there a way to read the prom and then
change the information in it and then program a new prom provided I can find
a new one.
Thanks in advance
Mike

I see that your IDer is a model 1300 and mine are model 700, however, I
received this reply from one of Racom's people that may be helpful with
reprogramming any of Racom's IDers:

 

Snip.

Good Afternoon Jim:

 

Thank you for the e-mail and your interests in Racom Products.

 

Generally speaking all of the model 700's can be reprogrammed

in the field via a PC.  However, over the years the circuit boards

used in the 700's have changed.  Which means a programming

kit for one unit might not work on another.  If you would remove

the lid of each unit and send me the board number  its PROM

number I can match up the programming kits ( disk and cable )

needed and match up the correct Service Manuals for each.

 

Or, you could send them to us and we can reprogram all of them.

 

Basically, the cost of a programming kit is: $24.00, factory pro-

gramming is: $19.000 and a Service Manual is $10.00, plus the

cost of shipping, handling and insurance.

 

If you have any questions please give me a call, thanks again and

have a good day.

 

Sincerely,

John M. Dukovich
