You do realize that radio waves eminate from an omnidirectional antenna in a sphere right

from an omnidirectional antenna

Yes. So the sky is the limit. But also the curvature of the earth that obstructs the line of sight at 8 in per mile squared.

Different wavelengths do different things differently.

No. The laws in wave propagation are pretty solid. You can say that they do different things if you're suggesting that they penetrate different materials and reflect off of other, but as far as propagation goes, they all follow the same laws.

And they say different wavelengths do different things differently.

Telstra 4g you get everywhere but it's slow as fuck.
Optus 4g doesn't work properly indoors but it's quick.

Because one frequency travels farther than the other, but doesn't like objects in the way.

That's a jewish answer. If you're going to make the claim that they are doing different things then you got to explain what things they are doing differently and how they are doing it.

The only difference is the wavelength will be absorbed or reflect off of objects. Some travel faster than others. This does not in any way affect the propagation of waves. They will still always travel away from each other in a straight line.

They actually test on open water to get those advertised ranges.

VHF doesn't "bounce" very well, anyhow.

Lol. What better place than a giant flat plane without ANY obstructions.
