Summary

Splits the JP release TX power sed into two groups instead of applying
13dBm uniformly to all devices, and documents the certification basis
in README_JP.md.

Wio-SX1262 (Seeed Technology, module-level certification 201-250230)
is certified for 10dBm output only. This certification is independent
of host firmware — Seeed confirmed in writing (2026-07-20) that
custom/open-source firmware and RadioLib do not invalidate it, as long
as the hardware, antenna, and RF parameters (frequency/power) stay
within the certified range.

Changes

  • variants/xiao_nrf52/platformio.ini → 10dBm
  • variants/xiao_s3_wio/platformio.ini → 10dBm
  • variants/wio-tracker-l1/platformio.ini → 10dBm
  • All other JP variants unchanged (13dBm)
  • Release notes in jp-release.yml updated to reflect the split
  • README_JP.md: new section on Wio-SX1262 certification + updated TX power reference tables

Verification

  • Confirmed all three Wio-SX1262 variant files matched by the 10dBm sed, and remaining 6 files untouched by it
  • pio run -e WioTrackerL1_companion_radio_ble succeeds with LORA_TX_POWER=10 (RAM 61.8%, Flash 65.0%)
  • Device programmed successfully (Wio Tracker L1 Pro, 150.69s)
  • Hardware TX power measurement: pending

Not in scope

Wio Tracker P1 Pro is not currently built by this workflow — tracked separately.

Wio-SX1262 module (Seeed Technology, 201-250230) holds standalone
technical conformity certification (技適) in Japan with a certified
output of 10dBm, independent of host firmware. Seeed confirmed in
writing (2026-07-20) that custom/third-party host firmware and
RadioLib usage do not affect the certification, provided hardware,
antenna, and RF parameters stay within the certified scope.

Devices affected (10dBm, was 13dBm):
- XIAO nRF52840 + Wio-SX1262
- XIAO ESP32S3 + Wio-SX1262
- Wio Tracker L1 Pro

All other JP devices remain at 13dBm (ARIB STD-T108 limit).

Build verified: WioTrackerL1_companion_radio_ble compiles with
LORA_TX_POWER=10.
Seeed confirmed in writing (2026-07-20) that Wio-SX1262's standalone
technical conformity certification (201-250230) remains valid under
custom host firmware, provided hardware/antenna/RF parameters stay
within the certified scope. Certified output is 10dBm.

Updates both TX power reference tables to reflect the 10dBm limit
for Wio-SX1262 devices (XIAO nRF52840/ESP32S3+Wio-SX1262,
Wio Tracker L1 Pro), matching the jp-release.yml change in #4.
