command to display valid transmit power values
(in dBm). The displayed values vary depending on the country of operation and
channel in use.
The default setting is to have the radio transmit at maximum power.
The
secondary
parameter applies only to 5.8 GHz radios. It sets the transmit
power for an optional secondary channel for use with Dynamic Frequency
Selection (DFS), a regulatory requirement in some jurisdictions. The default is
to have the same transmit power level for both the primary and secondary
channel. Refer to your RF plan and site survey to determine if you need to set a
different power level for the DFS secondary channel.
CAUTION!
Improper setting of the transmit power may exceed regulatory requirements
and void the operator’s right to operate the radio equipment.
