decrease, but this is because the RF output level is no longer reflecting the desired 
setting. This chart shows these dependencies:
Note: Power consumption is defined for operation into a 17 dB return loss load (VSWR of 1.33) 
or better. Power consumption may increase, up to 4 W, during operation into return losses 
worse than 17 dB and high ambient temperatures. Power consumption will also vary 
based on which of the Supported Regions
 is in use.

The following are the minimum requirements to avoid module damage and to insure 
performance and regulatory specifications are met. Certain local regulatory specifications 
may require tighter specifications.
