They weren't called FD500 until the very late 80's.

This board is copyrighted 1984, the date codes on the chips are all from 
early '84 as well.

The schematic references the 1793, and is copyrighted in 1983. So, it 
may be pot luck if the controllers have a 1793, 8877 or 8877A in them.

The 26-3129 (later known as FD-500) all have the 1773 controller, which 
isn't hackable.
