Yes, I encountered the same thing with nqc. However, the
download works fine with firmdl.exe.

After a long wait, during which the bar graph that tracks loading progress
lengthens, I get "Firmware download failed."  Yet this same tool happily
downloads the standard lego firmware (firm0309.lgo).  If I use NQC directly in
DOS via the -firmware option, things are worse:  initially, I get "downloading
firmware" and a row of dots, but finally the RCX makes an ascending beep, and
I get "No reply from RCX".  Then the RCX powers off, and I have to
remove/replace a battery to proceed.  I am running LEGO version 1.5 on Windows
98.  I tried to include the sample SREC file below, but lugnet cannot accept
binary posts.  Can anyone help?
