Are you sure, you (or the hw manufacturer for that matter) didn't confuse
the country code with regdomain code?

because while they have more or less the same function, they do have different
mappings. The 0x00 country code is reserved for the FCC (US), while the 0x00
regdomain code is a described as "debug" with supposedly no limitations?!
