Some time ago I analyzed the firmware of the AF9035.
The firmware download command inside the on-chip ROM expects chunks
with a 7 byte header:

Byte 0: MCS 51 core
	There are two inside the AF9035 (1=Link and 2=OFDM) with
	separate address spaces
Byte 1-2: Big endian destination address
Byte 3-4: Big endian number of data bytes following the header
Byte 5-6: Big endian header checksum, apparently ignored by the chip
	Calculated as ~(h[0]*256+h[1]+h[2]*256+h[3]+h[4]*256)

This might help locate the firmware inside the Windows drivers.
The Windows drivers often contain two copies of the same firmware.
