I have one of these in the garage. I think they're 6502-based with the OS on EPROM, or at least that's what I vaguely recall from last time I had mine opened-up about 20 years ago. I can dump the ROM if it'd help.

Many thanks for the offer! I have a few old ones, too. I'm sure I have seen .bin files with dumps. Maybe here: https://home.snafu.de/wahlm/tfdownload.html

There was some bad blood between Wa8DED and NORDLINK/TheNET about copying, maybe best to contact WA8DED directly, or the NORDLINK guys.

Then again, maybe it would be better to jump on the LoRA bandwagon and make something similar work with meshtastic: https://github.com/TheCommsChannel/TC2-BBS-mesh

Likely a Zilog Z-80 CPU with 28C256 eeprom.
