 Unfortunately no

If I set "regdomain ETSI" as ifconfig argument I it will force 5 Ghz )
then it will associate not counting on any combination of 0's or 1's
set as both sysctls values. The only difference is the wifi operation
mode.
If I set "regdomain FCC" as ifconfig argument ( or omit regdomain at
all ) then it can't associate not counting on both sysctls values.

Thank you
