The RF Coverage of the W(/)ANT/RPT seems to be a wide area coverage machine.
Ht's can work the repeater with 5 watts from 25 miles. Mobiles seem to have great coverage from 30-50 miles. Bases stations seem to get in from 50-100 miles.
Here is a signal study of the repeater which shows the signal levels as you find them around the repeater... Until you drop out into a hole or drive out of predicted range.

Here is a rf contour coverage path done By N(/)AN Hasan... Who has been making detailed studies of the repeaters path and signal strengths.
Here is a path from the repeater to Caroll, Iowa
