Does anyone know the range of this antenna?

As with any Antenna.... It is a matter of Antenna Height above the ground versus trhe number of signals in the surrounding area... Mounted on top of my Travel Trailer I received excellent reception of stations 75-100 miles away, by using the amplifier that came with this unit... Hope that helps you.....

Sorry, I don't have the means to answer your question. So far, testing with several others who have the same radio and on low-power (1 watt), we've achieved about a 2-mile range through trees and houses using the 14.5 inch antenna on one and the 7-inch on the other.

not sure about a number for the range, however this antenna would be a major waste of your time and money. I tried this thing every way possible and it simply sucks. This is truely a piece of junk.

This is an antenna for Sirius satellite radio devices. The range should be where ever the service is offered. I found some maps to look at here: http://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f13/what-are-the-geographic-limits-of-sirius-xm-radio-reception-50700.html

I use the ExpertPower 14.5 inch antenna found here on Amazon. I can't put the link though because Amazon does not allow that.

Check out this website for your areahttp://antennaweb.org/address.aspxIt is pretty accurate but I am getting more channels than it says I should so your mileage may vary.

The ones in my area appear to be about 30-35 miles away. Not sure how far away it will pull in signals.

Dimple,I got this antenna for mother-in-law and she is very pleased with the reception of both UHF and VHF channels. She is receiving two channels I am aware of that are 30+ miles away on VHF.Also remember that there are factors that will affect you signal...such as obstructions, trees, mountain ranges, the height you have your antenna set up in the air, etc. Anyway, hope this helps you out.

I am Ham operator, I took this antenna shortened it to work on 10 meters. I have it in my attic and it works awesome, I have been able to work many country's. I'm sure your idea will work fine.

Unfortunately not much can be done. I disconnected mine and purchased the powered flat 50 mile amazom antenna. The one you have does not state a range. I could only get 4 channels. But i am now getting about 25-35 and i am about 30 miles outside of Chicago.

according to specs the gain is negative for VHF, so you will be better off with a plain dipole for that frequency range.I have a station on VHF channel 12 very close and this antenna won't pick it up, but it is pretty good with the remote UHF stations.

I am not sure, but it is a good antenna. We have got stations from 83 miles north, and 92 miles south and 65 miles east and 77 west. We got about 60 channels some HD some analog. I like my unit for sure. I have it well grounded and about 20 foot higb and attached to our home.

I think the cord is about ten feet. However, I did not have any luck with this antenna.

In my experience, it depends on quite a few things. Atmospheric conditions, large bldgs/towers/hills, etc. can have a detrimental effect on antenna effectiveness. Also make sure to mount as high as possible on your vehicle. With perfect conditions (flat land, no towers, obstructions, etc., high mount, decent cb radio, good weather) these antennas will work for miles. I've never thought to measure how far but I'd think at least 2-3 miles.

No, it's not meant to reach that kind of area. I'd call Wilson. They're support is really great. They may suggest something like this with different antennas or they may suggest a home sized unit.

I would say NO. I returned this antenna because it would not pick up channesl 20 miles away from my home. don't waste you money on this.

I have installed the antenna in my attic. I receive some of the channels I was expecting to receive. I don't remember how far the range was suppose to be, but I am getting the range as advertised. Some of the towers are within that range, but I can barely get the signal or get no signal at all.
