Something must be wrong with the config on my router.  I have two of
these SR71-E cards, one in my laptop and one in my router.  The one in
the laptop says:

# dmesg|grep cfg80211
...
cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain
cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: US
cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain
...
# iwlist wlan0 channel
wlan0     20 channels in total; available frequencies :
          Channel 01 : 2.412 GHz
          Channel 02 : 2.417 GHz
          Channel 03 : 2.422 GHz
          Channel 04 : 2.427 GHz
          Channel 05 : 2.432 GHz
          Channel 06 : 2.437 GHz
          Channel 07 : 2.442 GHz
          Channel 08 : 2.447 GHz
          Channel 09 : 2.452 GHz
          Channel 10 : 2.457 GHz
          Channel 11 : 2.462 GHz
          Channel 36 : 5.18 GHz
          Channel 40 : 5.2 GHz
          Channel 44 : 5.22 GHz
          Channel 48 : 5.24 GHz
          Channel 149 : 5.745 GHz
          Channel 153 : 5.765 GHz
          Channel 157 : 5.785 GHz
          Channel 161 : 5.805 GHz
          Channel 165 : 5.825 GHz
          Current Frequency:2.462 GHz (Channel 11)

The one in the router says:

# dmesg|grep cfg80211
cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain
# iwlist wlan0 channel
wlan0     14 channels in total; available frequencies :
          Channel 01 : 2.412 GHz
          Channel 02 : 2.417 GHz
          Channel 03 : 2.422 GHz
          Channel 04 : 2.427 GHz
          Channel 05 : 2.432 GHz
          Channel 06 : 2.437 GHz
          Channel 07 : 2.442 GHz
          Channel 08 : 2.447 GHz
          Channel 09 : 2.452 GHz
          Channel 10 : 2.457 GHz
          Channel 11 : 2.462 GHz
          Channel 12 : 2.467 GHz
          Channel 13 : 2.472 GHz
          Channel 14 : 2.484 GHz
          Current Frequency:2.462 GHz (Channel 11)

The thing is, I've tried switching them and the US card when installed
into the router no longer says "cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country:
US".  There must be some kind of a misconfig on the router but I don't
know what it could be.  I think it used to work properly and stated
CRDA US in dmesg on the router.  crda is installed and I have
country_code=US in hostapd.conf.
