I meant regdomain, is the country code (two letters) stored in the
EEPROM as well? If so and if others were talking about it instead of
regdomain, then I was/am really confused.

ath: EEPROM regdomain: 0x0
ath: EEPROM indicates default country code should be used
ath: doing EEPROM country->regdmn map search
ath: country maps to regdmn code: 0x3a
ath: Country alpha2 being used: US
ath: Regpair used: 0x3a

(This is for other, old card but I think the ones I need to use produce
the same output).

Then again: does the regdomain = 0 means "US" or "default country" (or
something completely different), according to Atheros' docs?
