I don't get this arguing--my 2M Ham radio , on 2 watts, hits the Mt. Lemmon repeater, about 5 miles away. No obstructions, of course.
When people say of range on a Cell Phone, they forget these are hitting repeaters.--the actual, simplex range (if it were possible) is probably only 1 1/2 miles; the radius of a "cell". And, judging from a 3.7 volt, maybe 2 ampere/hr battery; this makes for about 6 watts, input, max, and it has to run the 'works as well as the transmitter, and still have some reserve for the rest of the day--that makes probably a
1/2-to -1 w output.
Thanks, Shetlan. But most guns I've seen had serial numbers 'way back into the nineteenth century, whether needed or not. My 1897 Winchester model 94 had a very low one--one of the first smokeless powder model 94's.
