Good point. I hadn't really considered this but a/g or n cards really
make it necessary to distinguish here, and regulatory stuff would also
benefit from defining it that way.

I have to agree that the phymode lost is relevance. and band channel
couple has more meaning

In this context, what atheros turbo phy mode is? What channel, band
does it operate?

Thanks
