I found this at Breezeshooter's Hamfest last wknd in the Pittsburgh
area.
This is a PAL programmer made by Structured Design, SD 30/24
It even includes a Stringy Floppy cassette player, plus a spare
cassette--I hope I can find these too.
This is supposed to be a standalone programmer with just a serial port
for console input and display.

Would someone know where I can find a manual for this PAL Programmer ?
I tried the usual websites, starting with bitsavers, but no luck so
far.

NEENAH €” A 60-year-old registered sex offender has been banned from the
Neenah Public Library after patrons reported him lurking, staring at
children and fondling himself.

Police arrested Lloyd R. Pitzen of Oshkosh on May 16 at the library and
jailed him on a probation hold. He was being held in the Winnebago
County Jail Wednesday night.

Officers recommended he be charged with a misdemeanor for lewd and
lascivious behavior in public for a Dec. 20 incident at the library, but
the charge likely will be downgraded to a municipal citation for
disorderly conduct.

Police Chief Kevin Wilkinson said the misdemeanor charge requires proof
that the defendant publicly exposed himself, and surveillance video does
not show that.

"He is reaching in (his sweatpants)," Wilkinson said. "He is being
obscene in his behavior, but it doesn't meet the definition."

Library Director Stephen Proces banned Pitzen from the library shortly
after police arrested him in May. The Library Board will vote to confirm
the ban next Wednesday.

Proces said only three people have been banned from the library during
his 22 years as director. Each ban involved sexual misconduct.

Pitzen's photograph has been circulated among library employees. Proces
said employees have been instructed to call 911 if they see Pitzen in
the library.

"We have people on the lookout for him," Proces said. "He will not be
allowed in here."

In the Dec. 20 incident, a woman who was with her children in the
library's youth section reported that a stocky man with gray hair "had a
very visible problem of interest in children" and that he grabbed
himself in the groin area under his clothing.

Police reviewed the library's surveillance video but were unable to
identify the man.

The woman's teenage daughter spotted the man at the library on May 16
and called her mother, who alerted police. The daughter also had seen
the man at the library several weeks earlier.

Pitzen told police he was last at the Neenah library several years ago,
but investigators identified him as the man in the December video.

State law was changed in 2007 to allow public libraries to share
surveillance video with police without a court order when criminal
activity is suspected.

Before the change, police needed a subpoena to view surveillance video
because the attorney general's office ruled that surveillance video
falls within the protection of the Wisconsin public library records
confidentiality law.

Pitzen was convicted in 1982 of second-degree sexual assault in
Winnebago County. He is listed as a life registrant on the Wisconsin Sex
Offender Registry.
