I asked the same question last December and was given a link to the firmware that no longer works...

But I do have the file (fortunately). I think it's less than 19MB (I incorrectly wrote kilobytes, sorry.) I'll see if I can put it up on my Google Drive.

(PM sent.) I "compressed" the single file into a zip since some virus checkers don't like downloading .exe files.
Thanks man! Now I just need to find a mini-USB cord. We had a big cleanout right before Coronavirus and I tossed all of mine, figuring I didn't need them any longer.
