David, just a heads up, a public list is being CC'd here.

In the db.txt (from wireless-regdb) we currently have TH mapped as:

country TH:
        (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20)

This came from the regpair TH was mapped to, which does differ from
FCC3_WORLD. TH was mapped to NULL1_WORLD which explains the lack of 5
GHz on TH on db.txt.

OK this needs to be updated and the regulatory database as well. Only
these countries map to FCC3_WORLD currently in ath.ko (the shared
module between ath5k, ath9k and ar9170):

	{CTRY_BRAZIL, FCC3_WORLD, "BR"},
	{CTRY_SOUTH_AFRICA, FCC3_WORLD, "ZA"},
	{CTRY_SRI_LANKA, FCC3_WORLD, "LK"},

To get TH to map to FCC3_WORLD we need a one line change to ath.ko
code and to the public db.txt to change to use the same regulatory
information as "BR", "ZA", and "LK":

country TH:
        (2402 - 2482 @ 20), (N/A, 20)
        (5170 - 5250 @ 20), (3, 17)
        (5250 - 5330 @ 20), (3, 20), DFS
        (5490 - 5710 @ 20), (3, 20), DFS
        (5735 - 5835 @ 20), (3, 30)

I'll send the respective patch if you ACK TH should map to the above.
