Just got one of these to play with for doing 256s.
I never got the programmer as I have a willem trouble is I am unsure how to connect it to the zif ...has any one tried this before, any help is appreciated.

The clip doesn't connect to the ZIF socket on the Willem, it clips onto the SPI chip on the modem and then fits into the IC socket of the SPI programmer. An SPI programmer will set you back about £20, only worth it if you are doing multiple modems really.

Yes, there's a couple on eBay I think, at least their were when I last checked. Look for a seller called sbxxxx, I think he sells them.

I got the programmer and after a few hours of messing with it as the tut is not very good, I got it to work.

I used to like swapping the chips.
