They came from
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/pipermail/users_rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/2011-March/003381.html

and

http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/pipermail/users_rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/2011-March/003382.html.

These were the Ralink submissions to linux-firmware that did not get accepted or 
rejected.

Once ralinktech.com.tw comes back up, I will grab the files from there and make 
a comparison.
