Richard,
You receiving a transmition has no bearing to the power output
(transmition )of your set.
If your receiving a station from a long way away that means they have a good
transmitter.
Although I'm sure 4 watts is enough anyway.
Regards
Kevin

Yes............
They are light, small, and not expensive(as opposed to cheap). The radio
is only 4 watts but that doesn't seem to be a disadvantage. In terms of
reception I have picked up traffic at least 70mi away from my garage
loud and clear with an untuned antenna. The latest version is more
powerful but I am not sure if it is available yet. In any case it will
probably be some time before it gets the necessary approvals to be used
here. As for delivery times, my transponder took a couple of months. I
brought the radio off the shelf at Sun n Fun.
