You have to send into Flex-Radio with a valid MARS license. They send you a firmware update (I think that's what it is). I talked to a fellow MARS licensee who had to go through this procedure. To my knowledge, noone has "hacked" it.

Yes, 11M is the habitat of good Samaritans.

I read that only FLEX models have firmware, the SDR-1000 does not use firmware.
The PowerSDR is open-source, so it should be no problem to find the frequency limits.

27.555 usb coming alive with skip isn't generally classed as an emergency.

I think maybe he thinks folks here will go QRZ on him.

941TX, I have my ticket and ALL my rigs TX out of band.

If you figure it out, lemme know.

I'm considering a Flex 3000 and would use it nefariously.
