summary of article

2.400 - 2.463 = 4W
2.463 - 2.4835 = 200W

except that is not channel 14....  channel 14 is _centered_ at 2.483 (2.473 - 
2.495)
the 200mW range encompases channel 13 and the top parts of channels 10 11 and 
12.

I would take this to read ch. 1-9 = 4W, ch 10-13 = 200mW.

all my looking on the ACA website seems to suggest that the lisenced band is 
2.400 to 2.4835 GHz, and the ISM band is 2.400 to 2.500 GHz.

check out the pdfs on this page...

nothing is said anywhere about the range 2.4835 - 2.500 GHz.... which is where 
ch 14 resides... so perhaps ch 14 is not permitted in Australia???
