How far does FM transmitter reach?

On FM frequencies, these devices are limited to an effective service range of approximately 200 feet (61 meters).

How far will a 2000 watt FM transmitter reach?

How far can a 100 watt radio transmit?

For a broadcast of 6 watts, the transmission range will be 3 miles. At 15 watts, the range increases to 5 miles, at 40 watts to 10 miles and at 100 watts to 15 miles. The general rule of thumb is it will take four times the power to double the transmission distance.

How far will a 50 watt FM transmitter go?

If 50 Watt ERP is used, it’s very likely that 20 miles of range will be achieved. This is because 50 Watt ERP is ample power to propagate a strong signal 20 miles. If 1 Million Watts of power is used, it is very likely that signal will only propagate just over 20 miles.

What happens if I use GMRS without a license?

Although the max power has been increased to 2 watts on these “bubble-pack” radios for GMRS channels(per FCC 2017), IT IS STILL ILLEGAL to transmit on GMRS channels WITHOUT a license. THE FINE IS 20K FOR EACH TRANMISSION ON A GMRS CHANNEL.

How far will a 4 watt CB transmit?

Transmitter power is limited to 4 watts in the US and the EU. CB radios have a range of about 3 miles (4.8 km) to 20 miles (32 km) depending on terrain, for line of sight communication; however, various radio propagation conditions may intermittently allow communication over much greater distances.

How far does 50 000 watts reach?

The most powerful 50,000 watt AM radio stations can be heard within a hundred miles or further in the daytime.

What’s the range of a 50 watt FM transmitter?

This is quite simply because there is not enough power to propagate the signal 20 miles. If 50 Watt ERP is used, it’s very likely that 20 miles of range will be achieved. This is because 50 Watt ERP is ample power to propagate a strong signal 20 miles.

How to determine the range of a transmitter?

1. The amount of output power of the transmitter (TPO) 2. The type of coaxial cable used 3. The amount of coaxial cable used (length of cable) 4. The type of antenna used 5. The height of the antenna above average terrain (HAAT) 6. The amount and height of trees in the area around the antenna 7. The amount and height of buildings around the antenna

How many watts do I need to get 48km?

Let’s take the 150 watts transmitter in the test one for example. 140 watts out of 150 watts maximum power was used to achieve 24km range. To achieve 48km, you will need four times of the power used to achieve 24km, in this case, 140 watts times four (140 x 4), therefore, 560 watts is needed.

How many miles can a million watts of power propagate?

If 1 Million Watts of power is used, it is very likely that signal will only propagate just over 20 miles. This because the range is limited as described in point a) above. ERP ( Effective radiated power ) is the power radiated from the antenna, all antenna systems have a degree of power gain.
