### How is the tool working without a DA binary?
Yes, MTreader used a DA in the past, but now it's completely blob-free (and this allowed to move it to the [public domain](./UNLICENSE)) and works via BROM itself. The trick is in using the correct mapping register setting: when we set the 32-bit value at the `0xa0510000` to 3, all the ROM contents (in 32-bit little-endian chunks) are mapped onto `0x10000000` base address by the MT626x chipset itself.
