I have the proposed ammendements here and they cleary use the words
"used indoors" anytime 5150 to 5250 MHz is mentioned.
That is "To be AS/NZS 4268:2003/Amdt 1)
Radio equioment and systems -- Short range devices -- Limits and
methods of measurement.
I've just read the current AS/NZS 4268:2003 and it also only mentions
5.2 GHz as being indoors and limited to 200mw EIRP.
And I'm not sure what that other standard I mentioned was.
