You're correct, I'm used to dealing in hex, and in fact my WPA key has
values in it that are out of the printable ascii range.

(rhetorical) Why would I deliberately reduce the set of allowable
values to less than half of what the standard supports by limiting
myself to printable ascii characters only (hex 20 - 7f)? After all, the
key is not meant for "human consumption".

FWI... I create a bug report for this:

To allow wireless configuration via wired connection to the device.

Also, I was able to enter the 64-hex key on my Squeezebox... but not
the Transporter... so it's probably just a "tweak" to the TP code. :-)
