Default using a microwave tester to measuer WiFi EIRP

I have a microwave leakage tester. It is calibrated for 2450 mHz, so
it should be perfect for testing WiFi Network output power. It is
calibrated in mw/cm2 (miliwatts per square centimeter). It is also ham
related as I am limited to 100mw EIRP on the 2.4gHz ham band.


Is the power specified as pX, pY, or pZ?

What does the 'instrument' indicate? At best it is probably pX, pY, and pZ
on an unmodulated carrier, but none of them on a WiFi signal.
