13. Transmitters using e.i.r.p. greater than 0 dBW (1 W) must employ
    frequency hopping or digital modulation techniques.

AFAIK WiFi uses digital modulation techniques. So this could be
raised up to 6 dBW?

We use e.i.r.p. value in the database. The limit is 1W, then minus 3 dB
due to lack of TPC.
