Bin modification?

Just wondering if anyone ever ran across a program to get clear code out of the I-link files?

The bin structure is shared with a number of other boxes like Freesat. You see "CMOS" at the start of the files and then there are a number of bin "parts" with addresses, offsets and sizes but you don't see any clear text and the files don't compress well so they are either compressed already or scrambled in some way. The first part starts 0xd0 bytes into the files. I would like to see some of the code in there for the 8psk module support with Broadcom chip.

Just giving u a little bump here JV

I've been playing with the files a little and with compression methods. I'm convinced that the parts are compressed if the fourth word is 1, 1st word is the place in RAM to put the part, the 2nd word is the offset into the file and the 3rd word is the uncompressed size if compression was used (you have to subtract the offsets of two lines to see the size compressed):

I think the compression type is an older one, around the same age as lzss but more like lz78 or one of the early lzw. You can see a number of 0x00 in the parts that are compressed and newer compression types would not leave those. Earlier compression types would leave text fragments and I don't see any of those.

Well, I tried a number of diff loss-less compression source codes and none seem to be right. LZO is close. Might be a specialized tool that does something else than just compression. I pretty much need a boot to figure it out. Topsat 5000 was one box that used the CMOS format after 2011 but not before--might be a good clue if the transition file could be found for it.
