I was curious more about the different use cases of the output power,
sometimes we use dBm, sometimes mW I think. I think I tried your
approach and ended up getting inconsistent results for the different
cases, so that's why all the parser junk got added. If you found a way
to successfully get rid of it though that's awesome, just want to be
sure we tested all cases. I purposely tried to upkeep the output to
match the input preference, some folks are picky about mW and others
like dB, this helps with regulatory rules as they vary depending on
the country and the country typically uses one or the other for the
definitions.
