Hi Rick,

Depends on how many PICs you need to program.. I have a quick and dirty one
I made with a machine pin IC socket and though-hole PLCC socket... just wire
the power, reset, ground and the two data lines.. Make sure you get both
power and ground pins on the PLCC and keep the wires short. Mine is just
"free floating" but you could get eager and mount the sockets on a PCB.. If
you use a "wire wrap" socket for the DIP instead of the machine pin one you
will have more then enough length to go through the PCB and into the
programmer's socket.

I use this to get a boot loader onto my PICs then use a serial interface for
actual development in circuit.. Makes life much easier.

Cheers,
Ash.
