Thanks Sujith & Luis that fixed it. I can now see the device and use it 
correctly.

I remove the 'cw' directory and then

'sudo make install'
'sudo make unload'
'sudo modprobe ath9k_htc'

I did install the compat-wireless package, I believe I did it while 
self-debugging the issue without knowing the implications.
