Thank you for the suggestion, I will look into it.

I am purchasing the 60ma adapter board and pre-programmed PIC from Mike,
just need to put together a digikey cart :)

Once I have the board assembled I will likely post about the 14, I have a
keypunch I am working on but I hope to have it repaired soon.
