What is the average range of a vhf?

The average range of a VHF (Very High Frequency) radio typically falls between 30 to 300 miles, depending on factors like the transmitter power, antenna type, terrain, and atmospheric conditions. In maritime applications, VHF radiOS can communicate over longer distances, especially with the use of repeaters. However, for land-based communications, the range is often limited by line-of-sight obstacles. Generally, VHF is effective for short to medium-range communication.
