Just a thought, are you interpreting this with the appropriate "endian-ness" for the processor?

:

One can easily see from the first 5 bytes of each DReal number, that the first bit of each Byte of the DReal number read by MEMREAD is inverted. 
The last three bytes deviate by rounding to 9 decimal places.

So I assume, that HP'encrypted' the constants, either directly in the RAM, or during readout by MEMREAD.
