Looking for a real Fortran-66 compatible PC compiler (CP/M or DOS or at least also Windows, doesn't matter)

Hi,

I have to compile some very old Fortran-66 programs, but I do not have
an IBM host or a TOPS-10/VMS machine.
So I am looking for a real compatible compiler for these old sources,
Fortran-80 (CP/M) is one of the candidates, but there are problems with
the data types. Are there any other PC compatible Fortran-66 compilers
out there ?

Regards
Peter

You should consider converting the code to C then you would be able to
compile it just about anywhere.
