After helpful hints from Peter Antyas and some terminal tinkering (Is Termite for Windows really the only option for provisioning via terminal? Seems so.), the big moment was to turn on the TX switch. I did so, the TX light went on and... ...nothing. The boat does not appear on AIS locally, nor in Open Marine which is really the only way for us to check. Everything seems to be on the level, the data stream is flowing nicely but nothing happens... All the TX switches are at 1, everything seems just fine in SignalK but nothing. There are also problems with Open Plotter Maiana not seeing the hardware, but I think the TX problem is unrelated.
Any suggestions?

openplotter version?
openplotter-maiana app version?
Go to openplotter-settings and enable debugging, then open a terminal and type "openplotter-maiana", try to connect with the hardware and put here any error.

I'm the same person who posted the thread at Maiana's Github about the problems of openplotter-maiana not seeing the hardware. Pasting in the relevant info from that thread:
openplotter-maiana version 2.1.2
OpenCPN version 5.6.2
Settings version 2.9.1
Errors in terminal when running openplotter-maiana:

The next followup was to post the MCU / FW numbers, which I'll do when getting back to the boat.
Ah ok.
That 'x' being parsed as a number makes me think that yours MCU / FW numbers can contain something unexpected.

You got it, that x should be a number, we should go back to github to ask Peter...
