YEs, channel 13 which is the one causing the firmware error is showing
as !VALID

wpi0: adding chan 13 flags=0x21 maxpwr=15, offset 26
wpi0: READ_EEEPROM_CHANS: chan 13 on band 0 is UNKNOWN

So it should not be added to the channel list. Can you show me a diff of
your printf changes so I can see what the difference between VALID &
UNKNOWN is.
