2.4 miles

With my VHF tranmitting at 25 watts, I can easily reach out from one side
of Chesapeake Bay to the other in most places.

At the 1 watt setting, who knows?

For the sake of discussions, let's say on a clear day from my VHF antenna,
which is approximately 14' above the waterline, a 25 watt transmission
reaches someone 12 miles away with a similar antenna height.

Is there a way to figure how far a 1 watt setting will reach with the same
equipment?
