Note: The following transmit power levels are for IEEE compliance for 802.11ah.
          They do not consider any backoffs needed for regional spectrum compliance
          (e.g., FCC, CE, TELEC, NCC).
          TX power in edge channels will be limited by the restricted band edge in the
          regulatory regions.
