mac address odd 2nd number - error?

if I want to change the wlan0 mac address to e.g.:

34:41:26:06:66:ac

I just can't, because it says:

SIOCSIFHWADDR: Cannot assign requested address

It gives error if the mac address has odd 2nd character. :D

??? I didn't know that every 2nd character can't be an odd number :|

Why? :D
