On closer examination, it looks like to be UTF-8 encoding.

When I used to set them, they were just a string of bytes. You

recommend it. I don't recall the standard actually saying anything

"Diagnostic Scan" information out to the user. (Everyone does it
now). Anyway, the point is, put what ever you'd like there.

What's the encoding for the SSID of an AirPort base station?
According to some documentation, a SSID is supposed to be pure ASCII.
But it's possible to create a Network using the AirPort menu extra
with unicode characters.
