I did a few lines of hand disassembly of the file I have and compared to the files from the link above. Unfortunately, those disassemblies are very wrong.
I also noticed that the E-side of the code resides in the lower 64k bytes and the T-side in the upper 64k bytes of the file I read from the PCM that was 128k bytes total. I did not see any signs of address swapping. Although, I only spent about an hour on it.
How are you going to program the new chips? I am guessing that you could split the 128k file in two and program each chip using the newly created 64K byte files. I am not sure which PCB is the E-side and which is the T-side. Remember, I only looked at it quick so please don't take this as fact.

What I would like to do (someday) is to just add the bootloader to a single blank chip. That would be cool IF it works. The link you posted does mention the adress lines was unscrambled. My raw dumps should have the addresses scrambled up, whatever that means.

It works great! The cable must be good..... I'm going to chalk up the programming failures to low battery voltage. It was actually fun to solder the sockets in. Thanks to everyone that helped!
