If you not familar with all profiles and CLI you have first to understand the flowchart of the profiles and how any profile is connected to other parts of the setup.
Whay you can do is login to the mobility master with CLI/SSH then connect to de device level and run a configuration effective, save that to notepad and you will see how the profiles are connected.
1. ssh to mobility master/conductor
2. cd ?
3. cd "one of the physical controllers"
4. mdconnect
5. show configuration effective
6. save to clipboard and copy to notepad
Old image but still awesome to understand...

There are multiple profilers that are in use for that screen in the GUI. See examples in the CLI below. You can copy these and create your own, or click through the GUI to create/change them. Make sure you have "Show Advanced Profiles" turned on in your user preferences. It will show more options. Also, all profiles can be found and edited under Configuration > System > Profiles.
Regulatory (channels to allow)
5Ghz radio profile
AP Group

Thank you Dustin.
So, if I'm making changes here, say as an example, adding valid channels...

Yes. You would want to do this via CLI. Make sure you create new profiles (radio/AP-System/etc....) for the new AP groups to use. Remember that profiles are referenced in a bunch of the configuration. If you change it, it may effect multiple AP groups, SSIDs, AAA profiles, etc....

I'm in a controller / mm environment…
Want to do some experimenting with an alternate configuration, with different radio settings (narrow channel widths, maybe use DFS channels).
Would the way to go be to duplicate the existing AP Group configuration, save as "Alternate" or whatever?
I don't see an option to copy/duplicate/"save as" ... is this on'y possible to do in the CLI?
