Beginner problem $0A

I am new to the chip burning stuff but here we go. I got the Pocket Programmer 2, Romulator and Tuner Cat software. I was able to read the chip by selecting the divice type 27C128 from the list in the Pocket Programmer. From what I read on the internet the chip was the supposed to be a 2732A chip but my chip has 28 pins and that chip has 24 pins. The ECM is from a 1992 Chevy 3500 454 TBI. The part number is long worn off. Now when I try to open the file with the Tuner Cat program I get the message. "The selected ECM definition file is either not compatable with this source or the source file has been modified. The source file has indicates that the $0A ECM definition file should be used"

I have tried to open this file with all of the ECMs listed in the Tuner Cat software. I have bought all of their ECM definition files but none seem to want to open it without this error message. Am I doing something wrong?

0A or A0?

A0, should be a 256 sized .bin.

Thanks I just got that. It is working fine now. Now I can put it on my dyno and start tuning.
