Q: QuestionI went to the manufacturers website and found that the range is 50 miles on this. This is also only a 15 watt radio.

Asked 5 years ago by Informant.

• A:Answer 50 mile is a typical repeater range. The radio itself is only good line of site for a couple of miles at least for me here in the rockies. The mxt115 has access to repeater channels preprogramed into it. If you can't reach repeaters where you're at, the 50 miles won't work for you. The mxt105 does not have the preprogramed repeater channels while this one does. The mxt105 is a 5 watt radio and the mxt115 is a 15 watt radio. It will have a little more power, so a little bit more power to transmit. You should get a little more distance out of this radio than the 105 or your typical handheld. Your actual mileage may vary depending on environmental factors such as terrain, etc., So do some research in your area and see what others think.

Q: QuestionCan the included antenna be tuned? If so, how is it done?

Asked 3 years ago by prof2000.

• A:Answer I believe it’s pre-tuned from the factory but if you need to tune in in better, it’s a matter of changing the length of the antenna by clipping some off. You’ll need a tuner to do it. YouTube has multiple videos on how this is done.
