In general the changes look okay to me and in line with the published
regulations (I couldn't read some of the documents you linked to, but
the limits do look to be in line with ERC/DEC/(01)07 and ECC/DEC/(04)08
which are referenced by the frequency allocation table).

It seems pretty arbitrary to change from dBm to mW however, especially
for those rules whose power limit isn't actually changing. I'd prefer we
leave them in dBm for consistency, in which case I think we end up with:

country HR: DFS-ETSI
(2400 - 2483.5 @ 40), (20)
(5150 - 5250 @ 80), (23), NO-OUTDOOR, AUTO-BW
(5250 - 5350 @ 80), (20), NO-OUTDOOR, DFS, AUTO-BW
(5470 - 5725 @ 160), (27), DFS
# 60 gHz band channels 1-4, ref: Etsi En 302 567
(57000 - 66000 @ 2160), (40)

If that looks fine to you then I can fix it up when I apply the patch.

Thanks,
