Now when I cat that file I get this output:

Regulatory domain: 0x30

It does appear to show the required change (previous setting was 0x10).

Ok, so that part at least works.

However, in the thread you have linked, some posts ( > #15) suggest that changes to the /sys/..../default_country file will not make the desired change in the kernel.

It does, but not in a permanent way and the userland bits may not be automatically updated. You may have to restart wlancond, and you may have to give it a different $OSSO_PRODUCT_WLAN_CHANNEL in the environment (the default value comes from the cal partition via /usr/bin/osso-product-info).
