So this range is defined for BG, DE, NL. This is still very much the exception rather than the norm. I maintain my opinion that these ranges should be removed on the basis that it is very low power and poses a risk in the presence of non-compliant devices. > > Regards, > > Mathieu Peyrega > > > > Le 07/09/2017 ? 14:38, Ryan Mounce a ?crit : >> >> Hi Mathieu, >> >> The permitted power within 5725-5875 MHz is only 25mW / 14dBm EIRP, as >> far as I am aware this was also the case prior to 2014.
