Hi

Unless I'm missing something on that display, there are multiple peaks within 
10db of the biggest one. That would put a lot of them above 30 mW/cm^2. 

If the right angle BNC on the antenna is as bad as some I've seen, they all 
could be closer to 40 mW  dbm than 30 mW....

If by some odd chance the antenna has gain at 2.4, then simply moving it a bit 
should significantly shift the display. Might be worth trying ...
