I have a wireless router that has the option to adjust the transmission power from .025 - .5w. I am wondering how this power is rated and tested and if it can be as different as a 1watt tube amp and a 1 watt solid state amp as I know there is a very large difference in what would be heard with the 2 1watt amplifiers.
The reason I'm asking is that the routers obviously use a solid state device but when RF power transmission laws were created I suspect that most were of the tube variety (if you know better, please correct me).
So what I am wondering is if the transmission of RF waves from a tube source would be greater than that from the same "rated" power of a solid state device.
