AOR AR8000 EEPROM Dump

The dump below was created using my own software. Interpretation of the dump data was possible by using information obtained from a variety of sources on the net, plus some additions of my own.

Note that technically the EEPROM starts at address 0 and lists the contents of all memory and search banks. I did not want to bore you with those details, so the dump starts at offset 0x6400, the place where system info is stored.

Note that large areas contain just 0xFF bytes. If multiple lines in the dump would list the exact same data, you will find a line marked by "******" in between the first line with that content (which is listed fully) and just before the first line that lists different content.

One of the areas that might interest you starts at 0x7700. I can tell you that when I received my unit, this area did not contain all FF bytes :-)
