Acording to Jim Sather, the inverter can be dispensed with:
Pin # ROM socket 2716 (except TMS2716 - use TMS2516 instead)
18 CS2 (active high) /CE (active low)
20 CS1' (active low) /G (active low)
21 CS3' (active low) Vpp (25v prog, 5v read)
So if pin 18 (ROM) goes to pin 21 (EPROM) and pin 20 (ROM) goes to both
pin 20 and 18 (EPROM) it should work.
Looking at the 2716 data sheets I have this is not valid as Vpp is only
