sorry, i run 'wlandebug +scan' then i run 'ifconfig ath0 up scan' and this
is the output:

 ath0: ieee80211_start_scan: active scan, duration 2147
483647, desired mode auto, append, nopick, once
ath0: scan set 1g, 6g, 11g, 7g, 13g, 2g, 3g, 4g, 5g, 8g, 9g, 10g, 12g dwell
min
20 max 200
ath0: scan_next: chan  12g ->   1g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   1g ->   6g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   6g ->  11g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan  11g ->   7g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   7g ->  13g [passive, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan  13g ->   2g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   2g ->   3g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   3g ->   4g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   4g ->   5g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   5g ->   8g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   8g ->   9g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan   9g ->  10g [active, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: chan  10g ->  12g [passive, dwell min 20 max 200]
ath0: scan_next: done, [ticks 90658763, dwell min 20 scanend 2238139744]
ath0: notify scan done

this might be a bit more usefull than the previouse one..
