Operating System

Windows 11

Browser

Microsoft Edge Version 136.0.3240.64 (Official build) (64-bit)

Expected Behavior

Obtain an accurate RF map of the max range of a possible instalation, having in mind the data that was input into the SitePlanner

Actual Behavior

Around 100km maximum seems to be a hard cap even though the GUI allows to set a Simulation distance limit

Steps to Reproduce

Start a simulation with Max Distance (500km;1000km, both tested)

Input values in a LoS area (Canary Islands in my case) with sufficient RF power, AGL and gain to theoretically be able to reach.

Execute the simulation (might take a while)

The simulation is cut short, but the RF map shows saturations that should allow higher propagation

Relevant console output

Additional Context

Hello,

I was trying to plan a network to see how the range would be at the Canary Islands and see what sort of setup would be needed to make an Island to Island link

I tried from realistic to completely imaginary setups (1kw of power, 39dbi antenna gain, 200m AGL , etc)

I clearly see a difference in distance reciever dbi, being almost max saturation, but even though in Simulation Max distance is set to 500km (i also tried 1000) the simulation seems to cap at around 100km

Browser logs show "Simulation Completed", no error messages are observed
