COVERAGE/RANGE
The maximum range depends on terrain condition and is obtained du-
ring use in an open space.
The only limitation to maximum possible range are environmental fac-
tors such as blockage caused by trees,buildings, or other obstructions. In-
side a car or a metallic constructions, the range can be reduced. Normally
the coverage in the city, with buildings or other obstructions is about 1
or 2 Km. In open space but with obstructions like trees, leaves or houses
the maximum possible range is about 4-6 Km. In open space, without
obstructions and in sight, like for example in mountain, the coverage can
be more than 12 Km.
