NOTES: Maximum Dwell Time 0.4 sec for all these regions (same as North American region)
Max RF power limit is that given in table or whatever the module is capable of, whichever is
lower.
Any channel frequency can be requested that is between the upper and lower bounds, but
the module will silently round down to the nearest channel that is the lower bound plus an
integer multiple of quantization steps.
The new Asian regions have been added to Reader.Region method. Refer Mercury API v1.29.4 release
notes for more information.
Support for Set/get Quantization Value and Minimum Frequency in Open Region
The Open region as defined in previous releases was intended for testing only. To permit the most flexibility
in defining channels, it allowed a minimum channel step size (quantization) of 25 kHz. The Open region is
not recommended to support channel plans which could not be easily accommodated by changing the hop
