I have an MCT MOD-EMUP hooked up to a Tandy 4000.  I don't know if the 
software is compatible.  It is a DOS program and I am unaware of any 
MS-Windows software for it.  If you are able to come up with the host 
adapter board but no software I could send you a copy of mine to try 
out.  I believe I got this from JDR in 199something.  They may still 
have compatible bits and pieces.  I use mine for reading and writing 
EPROMs, small PLDs, and testing DRAM, SRAM, and 7400 logic chips.  
Pretty handy.
