Background

This showed up on eBay listed as "ROCKWELL COLLINS PROGRAMMER NO TEK DATA FREE SHIPPING".  When I started playing with the keyboard and watching the LCD dot matrix display I discovered that this is a data loader for the USQ-113 comminucations jammer, like used on the EA-6B Prowler (Wiki).

Description

Switches

JAM or MON toggle
ON or OFF toggle

Display

The LCD dot matrix display seems to only be used as a 2 line by 16 character character display.
In many cases if you press an invalid key the display shows BAD KEY in the lower right.

Keyboard

The keyboard is a 5 row by 4 column with some keys having a yellow, green or blue shift meaning.
