OK - it looks to be "nicely" messed up by multispec:

...
Coordinate System is:
PROJCS["Generated by MultiSpecWin32_12.20.2007 on 03-09-2010 18:02:00",

        PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
        UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]],

...
Corner Coordinates:

Lower Left ( 567976.938, 775256.063)
...

Should this be UTM coordinates? Where is the place approximately?
Once figured out, you can assign the correct metadata with the
gdal_translate tool.
