range of two way radios: Anyone know?
1952273
Range of a two way radio is dependent upon many factors. The primary factors are the terrain, the power of the radio, and proper/correct usage. It should also be known that if your transmission is heard, that the response back to you may not be heard. Also if you hear a transmission they will not necessarily get your response. Confirmation of the ability of two way communications should be determined before purchasing and again upon receipt. If the radio will not provide reliable communications for your needs than make a test, check out the specifications, determine if licensing is required and be a knowledgeable purchaser.

I have been able to work 2-meter repeaters 45 miles away with a telescopic antenna. It depends upon the terrain of course.

Kind of impossible to say. Most quotes for range by manufacturers are theoretical based on max distance in a vacuum. If you are licensed to use this radio, you will understand its limitations based on the type of antenna and it's transmit power.For listening in, a dedicated scanner would be best. For transmitting, don't do it without a license!

Its going to depend on your height above the horizon and the height of the receiving antenna. In general, if you are sitting in a kayak on the ocean communicating to another kayak, I would not expect more than a mile or two of range, line of sight.

My daughter has gotten up to 1/8 mile in distance. Being a 2.4ghz system you get no interference and a better distance than the old am and fm radios .

Sorry I didn't reply sooner. It depends on how many other wireless signals are in the area. Sometimes I've had a range up to 50 yards or more. Other times not as much. 30 yards shouldn't be a problem.

The manual states: The Intercom has up to a 1000 foot (300 m) range and allows multiple simultaneous conversations, using 900 MHz secure digital radio link. In my experience this is accurate, your range may vary based upon interference.

Not sure with the range, but you can fly as far as you can see your plane. I never loose signal with this receiver before.

Im no expert but we got a 2 of ExpertPower® 14.4" Dual Band Two-way Radio Antenna SMA-FemaleSold by: ExpertPowerAnd it did improve transmit range. it messed with FM (music) radio reception a little bit I'd still recommend it.

I have not used these for outdoors, just for warehouse communication among my employees and the office. A good rule of estimation for mobile radios is 1/2 the stated distance. For this model it would be 18 miles, which is still a long distance. This allows for any obstructions which may block the radio waves. Midland does make good communication equipment.

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.

I have not been able to check that kind of distance but I can tell you the previous version of this radio that I purchased years ago got out to about 7 miles pretty clear. So I would venture to guess, depending on atmospheric conditions, elevation etc, it should get fairly close.

Its possible to answer this only for direct distance with no objects between them. What range do you need and what kind of walls/ how many r u planning to have between the transmitter and receiver?

Try a 27Mz rubber ducky..These Antennas are closley matched to 162Mz.... Reserched.... (wheather channels) This is why the wheather comes in with more clarity..QUOTE}There cute little radios.But not Quite up to par for mobile use 4 watts! Not)Try 60MA! Good for 100 feet!

Not sure of exact range, but we have traveled at least 100 feet with handset, with 4 walls between base and handset and still had good reception.
