The conventional Mostar can be programmed by the:

R1801 suitcase programmer (with the proper hardware/firmware)

Epson HX-20 (with the proper hardware/software)

And the infamous "MIB" (AKA the Mostar Interface Box) with the proper PC software and cable. All of the above are pretty rare.

There is an aftermarket MIB that appears on ebay from time to time but these also are pretty rare. A MIB and a RIB are entirely different devices
