Will it get signals from 100 miles?

that depends of course on the power of the radio station. Simply put, at this time: of all portable receivers that i have played with (and i have owned too many) this is the most sensitive for FM. For AM: It is not in the same league as the PL-310ET (the ferrite rod is too short).For SW: distance is not the issue, but time of day and sun activity -but it is quite good.In worst case, Amazon is very generous in understanding that this was returned because it did not meet your requirements

It has a better receiver than my radio shack radio. I was impressed with the clarity of am, fm as well. 100 miles seems like a possibility if the broadcast station is a strong one.

Short wave broadcasts carry thousands of miles using atmospheric "skip" when conditions are favorable.

If you're talking about AM or SW signals then yes. But your question is too broad for a definite answer. If you live 100 miles from a 50,000 watt clear channel AM station, (WABC for example) then yes you will probably pick it up.

It will pick up signal from a home 500 ft away, but it depends on different factors such as: topography, surrounding vegetation, and others. If it is a flat and clear area you should have no problem getting signal, but i cannot guarantee 3 bars.

I agree with the other replies. You will need something much stronger for a good signal..

I don't know about satellite, but I have DSL and I get a full signal up to about 50 feet sway.Works great out to about 100 yards.

I doubt it. It's a "repeater". It picks up the signal from the wireless router/modem at some distance from the modem and "repeats" it. It has to be placed somewhere between the wireless router and the computer/tablet receiving the signal. 1000 ft is about 1/5 of a mile. This device is only 600 milliwatts. 100 ft. unobstructed at best. This is sort of like adding a second modem/router to get better coverage through dead spots.

It will work on land lines, there isn't an answer button, and the range is somewhere around 100 meters open air.

Depends on how many walls the signal has to go through and a bunch of other variables. My base station is about 100 ft away from my garage. If I stand just inside my garage no signal. Stand just outside the garage I get a signal.

It depends, we attached ours to an external antenna and plugged into our car accessory plug and could communicate up to about 5 miles on flat terrain and a couple of miles in the mountains. With the antenna that is included with the radio you might get a mile, this last estimate is based on the feedback on the reviews of the radio (check out the Radio Shack site).

I ran it for 100' without apparent signal loss. I would try without amplifier and if signal is low than install a amplifier. Living in an obstructed viewing area (Satellite) placement was more important than distance for signal strength.

I assume it works at the distance they say it does. I know it does work at seventy five feet as long as there is no movement or obstruction in the line of site and that the transmitter does not move.

Yes, with some ifs. I am 26 miles from xmtr which is 2000ft with 100 ft. trees. Thunder storms sometime s wreck signal. But that is less than 10% of the time. Mount in window.

I get a pretty strong signal up to 50 feet. It's one of the best investments I've ever made. I love it! Hope this helps you with your decision to purchase one!

Most car remote transmitters are about the same power output. They will reach approximately 100 feet.

I live about 40 miles North of Dallas and it works really well. If I understand the package instructions right, this is a medium multi-directional antenna. I think it could get a signal 60 miles away, however, check out this web site: http://www.antennaweb.org/ to make sure I'm not telling you something that isn't so.

With proper Externally mounted antennas on both ends, you should be able to span 100 feet or more

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

It depends on the strength of the signal. Many signals are only designed to carry a certain distance. I would think that 45 miles is stretching it, but it's possible. Let the community know how you made out.
