The firmware, AFAIK, is not a PROM but a MCU chip. It is a surface mounted
device and
hence not easy to replace with standard tools found in the HAM shack. I've
bought my update for a FT990 from the YAESU service center in the USA as the
Australian
distributor was unable to help me.
In any case, find below the address of the Yaesu Service Centre in the USA:
