There's a 2 meter system in north central Indiana that I've been told runs around 150 watts TX output, yet when using a 50 watt mobile with 12 dB SINAD sensitivity around 0.2 µV I could still access it when I wasn't getting enough return signal to hear the stations talking to me. Apparently the site noise & receiver noise temperature is very low. Bob NO6B
