In the us the regulations say "minimum power required" but no more than 1W eirp, which means the radio can be less than a watt with a directional antenna.
Good 802.11 radios can do 1000mW.
A microwave oven magnetron and a simple aluminum waveguide is many hundreds or thousands of times more effective radiated power.
I too would really like to know, and try it too, but getting permission for 800W transmission would be a pain.
