Stuart, It depends on the regulatory body you are dealing with and whether this is a class B product or not. The note in CISPR 22 that allows testing at alternate distances applies only to class B products. BSMI in Taiwan is adamant about wanting 10 meter data. The limits would be about 10 dB higher (1/R) at 3 meters.
Keep in mind that 1/R doesn't work well between 3 and 10 meters with most products and that a product that passes at 3 meters may very well fail at 10 meters. There is a risk associated with testing at the closer distance.

Is it ok to use 3 meter data and what should the new limits be (may be 10 dB higher)?
