Hello All,
I'd to try my hand at PIC programming and the projects that I have in mind are
amateur radio related so I suppose this question is not off topic.
I have some utilities (gputils) that will create the hex code, however I'm
wondering what other people use to actually program the PIC.
An Internet search didn't reveal very many programmers for Linux. One
interesting project is called ponyprog2000. The hardware is more complex than
a typical programmer that operates under MS Windows but it's probably more
versatile. The software appears to be easy enough to use.
Does anyone have a favorite PIC programmer? My only interest at the moment is
to be able to program PIC 16F84 and 16F876 chips.

Is this what your talking about?

Just curious,

P.s. My grandfather gave me the coolest gift for christmas. It was a
copy of the ARRL Amateur Radio Handbook circa 1958. For my birthday
(January 3rd) I got a $100 gift certificate to Frys Electronics. With
that I bought the 2003 edition of the Handbook and the W5YI Technician
class (Element 2) study guide. I'm going to my first HAM Club meeting
tonight. This hobby is turning out to be really cool.

Just thought you guys should know... ;-)

Phil,
I bought a cheap (hooks up to parallel port) programmer from:
http://www.dontronics.com/prod.html
It and the PICALL software are like USD$65 assembled. Works with nearly
any PIC chip.
Also, check out "mplab" which is a free assembly language dev
environment available from www.microchip.com.
If you are doing a lot of fooling around and testing, buy a couple of
PICs that are eeprom based. Erase them with a high-intensity UV light.
Cheaper in the long run than the burn once, throw aways.
cheers,
- Frank

I have used picprog (http://www.iki.fi/hyvatti/pic/picprog.html). It's old
and only handles the 16x84 but it works with very simple hardware which
needs no extra power.

A programmer for DOS will likely run in an XDOS box. With FreeDOS, you
don't even need a MS copy of DOS....
The same applies for Windows apps under the Wine emulator (although
the results can be a bit less predictable here). Again: you don't
even need to own Windows.
A collegue of mine uses a programmer bought at Dick Smith's, which, he
says, is one of the better ones. No doubt you can get them in Oz, too.
