No. You can only do this by trying to take the card out of compliance

Oh and my point was that "regulatory hacks" fit this description.
Ok. I believe you are right in general, but I can't see how enabling
a device to work on a non-scanned channel can break something, if
it is perfectly legal and appropriate for there to be an AP on that
scanned channel. In other words, if I change my Netgear to be on channel
48, scanned it, and then created a VAP on that channel, that is OK with
un-hacked regdomain stuff, but if instead I change regdomain to 0x0
and use channel 48 without re-configuring my Netgear, somehow that
suddenly causes issues?
At any rate, all I really wanted to do was tie-break an off the
shelf AP that appeared to cause ath9k clients to silently be
unable to ARP after a while. I have something that appears functional
now, so back to real work.
Thanks,
Ben
