Microwaves are better carrier signals than radio waves for long Range signals :
=> We know that Microwaves have higher frequency than radio waves to pass through Earth's Ionosphere to cover up-to long distances.
But, Radio waves waves with slightly low frequencies are able to cover shirt distances only.
=> Due to comparatively longer wavelength of
Radio waves ,they are reflected by Earth's atmosphere.
=> Microwaves have shorter wavelength and can easily pass through earth's atmosphere.
Hence, can cover up signals through larger distances out of the earth.

Hello Dear.
''As we move from the one end of the Electromagnetic Spectrum (say from gamma rays), we will observes that the the Frequency of the waves continue to decreases and the wavelength will increases. Thus, Microwaves have the Frequency higher than the Radio waves.''
Now, ''We know, All the waves which carries the signals have the high frequency (Micro waves) which are used to radiate the low Frequency waves. If the low Frequency waves(Radio waves) are used as the carriers of the signals then these waves will stop sometimes due to the more energy loss''.
''Thus, Microwaves are prefers over the Radio waves for carrying the signals''.
[Note ⇒ Frequency of the Microwaves are in the range of 3 × 10¹¹ Hz and 3 × 10⁷ Hz, where as the Frequency of the Radio waves are less than 3 × 10⁷ Hz.]
Hope it helps.
