I always mentally check against the data point: 300 MHz => 1 meter
(since c ~= 300 Mm/s).  Above that should be less than 1m; below that
should be greater than 1m.

30 dBm = 1 W = 0 dBW.  IIRC.

116 dBm = 86 dBW = 10^(8.6) W = 398 MW !!!

That's the sort of power that is used for time machines in
science-fiction movies.  You might want to check that number. :)
