Description
Control firmware for a car radio, read from the machine’s chips before it was scrapped.
Provenance
Donated with the machine it was used on. The window labels had peeled and the EPROMs had been exposed to light, so each was read many times. Rebuilt from 3 damaged copies, none of them complete on its own.
