The frequency bands 902-928, 2.45GHz and 5.8 GHz, when used with certain
restrictions in two methods of spread spectrum modulation can have a
theoretical maximum of 1W US. The 2.4 and 5.8 GHz bands generally overlap
in Europe where the limit is half that and in Japan where the limit is
generally 100 mw. In addition, there are more restrictions on antenna gain
in Europe / Japan than in the US.
