Okie

Looking at it a bit more probably makes sense to codify the current
harmonized EU rules, and then just for each country note that they've
actually implemented it in their local legislation (I checked FI, SE and
CZ).  Everyone should have, but some are pretty slow at this, or
have some special national interests...

The legislation uses mW, so that's the reason I switched them.

For review (first hit on google for the decision number
should find the official text), I can do patches once someone
has verified, that this is what the legalese actually says:

# EU Commission Decision 2009/381/EC
       (2400 - 2483.5 @ 40), (N/A, 100mW)
# 2005/513/EC and 2007/90/EC, 5250 and 5470 can be doubled if TPC is in use
       (5150 - 5250 @ 40), (N/A, 200mW), NO-OUTDOOR
       (5250 - 5350 @ 40), (N/A, 100mW), NO-OUTDOOR, DFS
       (5470 - 5725 @ 40), (N/A, 500mW), DFS
