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.

So I figured that I could use it by measuring the field strength at a specific
distance from the antenna, and then applying a conversion factor.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Geoff.
