The range is a function of many factors. Apart from the statutory
transmitting power other factors are relevant: e.g. the position of the
antenna (it should be installed at right angle and send freely) and
above all the environment where you transmit. Each obstacle (hills,
buildings, trees) reduces the range, some materials (e.g. reinforced
concrete, pieces of rock) give rise for considerable screening effects.
Under optimum conditions (i.e. unobstructed view, e.g. in the open
country, during sailing or paragliding) PMR 446 radio sets have a
maximum reach of 5 km. In housing areas a range of 1 - 2 km is realistic,
in strongly screened environment (e.g. in the mountains or inside
buildings made of reinforced concrete) the reach may drop to a few
hundred metres or less.
