CLA byte of the select APDU command

Why can't I use 0xBC as the CLA byte of a select APDU command? I will get 6E 00 (SW_CLA_NOT_SUPPORTED) if I use 0xBC.
Is there any special requirement for CLA bytes?

SELECT APDU command 00 A4 04 00 is a standard APDU defined in ISO 7816-4 spec.
Regarding CLA bytes, you can check ISO 7816-4 spec to learn which values can be used as CLA.

Which card are you using when you do CLA = (byte) 0xBC ?
I have used CLA = (byte) 0xBC and CLA = (byte) 0xB0 and have never hit any problems on NXP JCOP, Feitian cards or any other cards for now.
