Mike,
This new firmware is required to run the latest version of SpectraVue. If you go to the SpectraVue download page at
www.rfspace.com, there are clear instructions on how to do it. It is very easy using SpectraVue. If you use the SDR-IQ with another application, then there is no need to upgrade.
Regards,
Pieter
