Hello Larry,

For the record, I am in the FCC domain but on my device the regulatory
domain was
not configured. When I was debugging the issue, I did set the domain
with `iw reg set US`,
however I now realize I set it _after_ the module was loaded, which is
probably not
what I should have done.

I look forward to the release of the patch.
