Will it pick up 50 feet away

Yes. We have a 8,000 sq ft facility and it picked up all across the gallery.

My advice is not to buy this. You will be disappointed with the quality of the sound and how it's constructed. They first shipped me one with missing microphone and loosen screws. I exchanged for another one but it was not any better. It's like you are paying for piece of refurbished audio equipment that's made in 1950. Piece of junk.

Yes! It has very good range - and a really strong volume for such a small unit!

I have been able to work 2-meter repeaters 45 miles away with a telescopic antenna. It depends upon the terrain of course.

Yes it should be perfect for picking up signals from farther away. I used to use mine at the RV Park. It is basically just an amplified wireless antenna receiver. It comes with a driver CD, which I just checked and it has a MAC OS 10 driver.

I Have not tested with 50 feet. But in general the bigger the distance the bigger the area you are sampling, and therefore less the precision. I would have it's best used at about 25 feet and under. At 50 feet you are sampling 4.2 inches diameter.

Yes, we have ours mounted at about 20 feet above our deck and it will pick up our dogs. It also comes on inexplicably in the middle of the night. We guess it picks up birds or bats or some other creature.

In long range mode the maximum distance is 50 ft. Do not know if that could be extended.

I have pulled it all 50 feet with no issues. I like it a lot, great product for the garage.

i have used it about 12 feet away and it worked fine. It will go further then that.

No it will not work for 30 feet away you would need a 100 feet one to do the trick.

I get a pretty strong signal up to 50 feet. It's one of the best investments I've ever made. I love it! Hope this helps you with your decision to purchase one!

50 miles fringe at best my be better off with some type of directional beam.if you're talking later at night when the Skip dies down it'll probably make the trip.fifty miles is a long way even with an amplifier which is illegal on 11 meters

Hello, I haven't tryed the detector at that range but I have mine set about 35 feet off my driveway and it picks up people about half the time. When it's cold outside the decetor doesn't work as well. At 200 feet I don't think it would work for you. Hope this helps you out.

Not much if its farther than 2 or 3 inches away dont expect much to be honest

I can go 50 ft in any direction of my house and it works. It may work further away than that ,I checked it at the street in front of my house and at the alley behind me

It might. I wasn't able to pick much up but I live 60 miles from the station I was trying to get, surrounded by mountains. Try it, and if it doesn't, Amazon will take it back no problem.

A couple hundred feet. I notice it picked up at the front of my house which was only about 50 75 feet away. But it does connect around the whole house.

I'm not sure how far but I know it works 50 ft. from it. I have it on the ceiling of my front porch so I know when someone is at my mailbox and I hear it in the back patio of my house.
