The radio is all stock;
except my farther had it peaked
and tuned during the CB Craze in the 70's

The Solarcon a-99 is brand new!!!
how many miles can I expect in good conditions
farther said it was a great technician that did the work so I know it puts out a FULL 4 WATTS
its a LEGAL EAGLE LOL 4 watts NO less NO more

there isnt any expected or guareenteed range. however it will be determined
by your land elevation and antenna height above ground.mount it at least
18 feet above ground . 36 feet is ideal
 
I have A stock Uniden Washington with Anton 99 on a 25' pole I get at night no skip.. 10 miles AM 18 miles SSB
 
There is absolutely no sure way of giving a 'range' for any particular antenna at any particular height. It all depends on too many variables, the main one being propagation or 'conditions' which no one has any control over and is always changing. About all you can do is like everyone else does, try it and see what it happens to be right now. But then, wait a few minutes and it may get better or worse. That's absolutely normal.
