The maximum line-of-sight distance dM between two antennas having heights hT and hR above the earth is given by dM=2RhT−−−−−√+2RhR−−−−−√ where hT and hR are the heights of the transmitting and receiving antennae.

Substituing, we get: dM=2×64×105×32−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√+2 times64×105×50−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√m

dM=64×10210−−√+8×103×10−−√m

=144×102×10−−√m=45.5km
