From how long distance receive the signal?
1519445
I received a good signal from 200 yards away. The Alfa was mounted on a 10 ft pole with several trees and a building between the Alfa and the signal source. The source was an average router without any range extender or signal booster. The signal never dropped out for the 3 days (and nights) I used it. I think this is a good piece of equipment for my needs, especially since it was made for marine use (on a boat mast at sea with flat surface). You know, line of sight operation.

it all depends on the strenght of the incoming signal. It could go as far as 3 miles in line of sight.

It has a digital impulse signal back to the receiver/indicator via the distribution panel circuit breaker. Long distances cause a voltage drop, but the impulse signal should not be affected at the same rate. As long as the circuit you are trying to identify is wired to the distribution panel, where you are trying to identify the circuit breaker, you should be able to receive a signal within a 1000 linear feet if not more. I hope this helps.

And make sure you know how far away yer antenna will pick up TV signals: some say 35 miles, some say 50 miles. If you live farther than that, you wont get any reception.

I have the devises with 10 meters distance, but from second to first floor and with walls in the way. Because of that, the signal is not perfect and at the begining I had to keep fixing the receivers anthena. If the signal is within the same floor, and/or no or few walls in the way, there should be no problem. 10 meters are about 35-40 feet. There is no need of line of sight. It should work OK because in my case I almost have the devises one over the other in different floors, with stairs and 2 half walls in the way. Finally, if you buy it, the package instrutions do not include the detail of how to sincronize the devices, just have to press the top of the UFO looking thing.

Yes. Distance is subject to line of sight and any obstacles in the way. If your final signal is marginal, then you can add another on the other end to strengthen the signal.

The range will vary. I installed unit in an upstairs plaster wall structure and I was able to pick up signal as far as 250 feet away. Range is excellent.

My sending unit is mounted on a pole approximately 400ft from my house. To get to the receiver the signal must pass through 4 walls. It works fine under those conditions.

What you see on the dongle is what it comes with. As long as you are within 12 feet, you will get a signal.

I have an identical situation and it works very well at least 200 feet away. Hope this helps.

I have one of these deployed in an outdoor environment. Good strong signal in buildings up to 1500 feet away. One key note. Unless your trying to reach more than a km don't turn the distance setting up. That only changes timeout settings.

It really depends on the terrain, but realistically in an urban environment you'll get around 1/2 mile. In the wilderness it will be more, but hills will block the signal. You need a clear line of sight to get distances of a more than a mile.

I have a strong signal through a brick building up to 1/2 mile. Beyond that I don't know.

Its about 50 t0 80 feet with some obstructions. I wouldn't buy this model though. Keep dropping the signal. Spend a little more and get a better one. You won't regret it.

I have received signal up to 3 km in hilly area. Beyond this, I didn't tested and in plain areas range may be even greater may be up to 5-8 km. Buildings and Trees are enemy to signal and try to keep antenna as up as possible, say on the topmost floor of your building.

I can receive all the signals available in a 20 to 40 mile radius of my home. I can't say how far I am from all the towers but somewhere between 20 and 40 miles. Another set of towers are 50 to 60 miles away him and I cannot get any of them.

That's a good question. I plugged mine in a center supporting wall in the middle of my house and I can get the signal in my neighbor's yard over 200 feet away!

Hi Joseph,The range is better then 5' maybe 15 or so but if there is motion in the room between or behind the sending device it breaks the signal.
