Locale? hah. What does the language your computer presents text have to do
with where in the world your computer is?

The channels you've listed are the world regulatory domain, a subset of
all domains which is globally appropriate, and unlikely to cause
problems for roaming users.

Run
	iw reg set CA
to set it for Canada, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2 for the appropriate two
letter countrycode. In your case, obviously 'DE'. :)

NetworkManager can probably set this somehow as well, but I haven't
bothered figuring out how.
