How is it possible to hit a repeater 34 miles away with 5 watts? Is it that the repeater has "more sensitive hearing" than another handheld would have at that distance? Sorry if that is a dumb question - I am new to this stuff. Thank you.
Hi folks,
I was looking for an inexpensive mobile radio, because I wanted more range than a 5 watt handheld could provide. I see that the Radioddity mobile puts out 20 watts, and goes for $110 on Amazon. Does anyone have any knowledge or experience with that radio? Thanks in advance.
