Thanks Wesley.

I forgot about that.
I was going from man pgt which says:
FILES

     A prepackaged version of the firmware, designed to be used with
     pkg_add(1), can be found at:

        http://firmware.openbsd.org/firmware/pgt-firmware-1.2.tgz

The problem I have is that fw_update doesn't accept arguments and I
need the adjacent pcmcia slot for the ethernet card and they are both
bulky cards.
I need to remove the conexant card to insert the ethernet card to
access the network and then fw_update reports there are no devices to
update - the conexant card is no longer attached.
:]

If you can think of a way to run this locally it'd be great.
