Maximum EIRP is 36 dBm (4 W) (Ref 1)

Updates for 5 GHz :
=================

  5150 - 5250  23 dBm (200 mW) indoor only            (Ref 1,3)
  5250 - 5350  23 dBm (200 mW) indoor/outdoor,DFS+TPC (Ref 1,3)

  5725 - 5825  53 dBm (200  W) PtP fixed              (Ref 1,2,3)

And possibly this via the Spread Spectrum Device provision

5470 - 5725 30 dBm ( 1 W) requires DFS+TPC (Ref 3)

Maximum power density is specified for some chunks.

TaDa!

kernel.org is still down so we've derived the below patch from ...

For the DFS items, if TPC isn't used the maximum power is 3 dB less, but there's no way of representing that in your scheme.

Sorry for the delay, and thanks for the patch.

Could you perhaps produce the patch in "diff -u" format? Also, could you include a proper "Signed-off-by" line?

Thanks,

John
