All 32S/32SII programs and equations should run on the 33S. However, the reverse is not necessarily true, for two reasons.
First, the 33S has a few new functions that are lacking in the 32S/32SII (like SGN, INTG, IDIV, RMDR, CB, CBRT). Any 33S programs or equations that used these functions would not be 32-compatible without modification.
Second, the 33S has a much larger memory than the 33S. So a large 33S program simply may not fit in a 32 series machine.
In this case, the 33S survey software advertised on eBay is "about 3K" in size. That greatly exceeds the 0.38K memory of the 32S/32SII. So even if each individual routine was 32-compatible, it would be impossible to actually load them all.
