Nope, there is still an EEPROM/calibration data which enforce a limitation. Please login via ssh and check the regulatory set via


iw reg get


Check the current active limits using


iw phy


My ath9k reports a max. of 21 dbm with the global country set to US vs. 20 if I use a country code for an EU country.
