doc: nrf5340_audio: note about +20 dBm limitation
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Added a mention of the missing support for +20 dBm when using the
controller with the nRF21540 FEM, because of a class restriction
in the controller's QDID.
OCT-2735.

When you build the nRF5340 Audio application with the nRF21540 FEM support, the :ref:`lib_bt_ll_acs_nrf53_readme` does not support the +20 dBm setting.
This is because of a power class restriction in the controller's QDID.

See :ref:`ug_radio_fem` for more information about FEM in the |NCS|.
