For those who have this radio, here is the link to the firmware update which opens 10W Tx possibility on the 10m 11m bands: https://disk.yandex.ru/d/xBCOJ3HX_yLtTQ?fbclid=IwAR2sKA-7N6MjXpLm96uK8imaRnthd6a0t9bzNGwD92S_XPuWWrkBQU3o92o
In the video below, although in French, the gentleman shows which folders to click in terms to reach the small firmware file. He shows also how to put the file on a usb stick and install it in the radio. You probably know about the two buttons holding procedure if you have already updated before: https://youtu.be/FCuXwVLym8Y
For those who aren’t familiar with this radio here is a review: https://youtu.be/YC4mlC5_U-4

Affirm. On this video the guy presses the upper “choose” button so he couldn’t “upgrade”. He needs to press the “choose” just beside the “upgrade” and the “upgrade button wouldn’t be greyed out like his. I did the same mistake. Otherwise this is a very good and detailed vid!

Not got the radio myself. I see the other choose button you mention easy mistake but it's the software that needs updating to help people first lol.
