Hmm.. not sure. Perhaps we should add only one more information:

ETSI has been set the maximum EIRP output power to 36 dBm (4000 mW)
Source: https://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/302500_302599/302502/01.02.01_60/en_302502v010201p.pdf

+ The new maximum EIRP output power also allows regdb to work
correctly when txpower is greater than 20 dBm.

Since there is no standard defining greater txpower, in my opinion we
should keep the maximum value. What do you think?

Do I need to submit a new patch?
