That truthfully depends on the transmitter's transmitting power, height of the transmitting antenna and the terrain.

Do you need a stronger signal for digital TV or for analog TV?
There are two answers to the question - Digital or analog. Here is the reason why: Digital signal are very robust signals as long as they do not fall below a certain strength and quality. As long as the signal is above that threshold, a receiver should be able to interpret the data correctly. That means a full quality image even though the signal may only just be above the strength and quality threshold. Analog signals need a higher signal strength and quality to achieve full quality images at the receiver. As the signal strength and quality reduce, more noise and other distortion can be detected in the image. Despite this, a signal strength and quality far lower than an equivalent digital signal will still be received. The image may be degraded to the point where noise is intrusive, but the content can still be seen. Broadcasters take into account the differing requirements of digital television and will make efforts to ensure that the signals received are of sufficient quality to provide reliable programs. It is perhaps worth pointing out that signal strength and signal quality are two separate measurements. Quality is just as important as strength so signal strength alone will not guarantee good reception in all cases.

Does a digital signal travel farther than an analog signal?
You need to make a distinction between analog and digital signals, and analog and digital data. Digital data can be sent on an analog signal by using a modem. Digital data sent on a digital signal is done over a wire using voltage pulses at two or more levels. Digital signals can't travel very far without amplifiers, but analog signals can cover huge distances, such as with satellite communications and even communications with deep space probes.
How analog signals are different from digital signals?
An analog signal is a signal of varying amplitude. The signal can be: Light of different intensity Light of different colour Varying voltage like that produced by an MP3 player or Computer Soundboard. Varying levels of radiation We can easily compare the Analog signal with waves on the ocean. They go up and down and can vary in speed, size and intensity. Digital signals are very different. Digital signals are either on or off. In light, we either have light on, or we do not have light. Analog measuring is often a part of describing when a digital signal is a zero or a one. We measure for levels of light, or levels of voltage to define whether the signal is supposed to be interpreted as a zero or a one. This makes digital signals very resistant to background noise and they can travel very far with little or no degradation. Digital signals are very suitable for transferring information. This is actually what they are all about. Analog and digital signals go these days hand in hand when it comes to music. We transform an analog signal into its digital representation and by recording the digital information we do not get loss of information.
How far is London tower bridge travel lodge from London o2 arena?
About 5 miles
Did a hotel in Billings MT hear the SOS signal from the sinking Titanic?
Highly unlikely. The radio signal from the ship wasn't strong enough to travel that far.
IF the frequency is maximum then the signal will far awy or near?
higher frequencies attenuate more the further distance they travel.
Will a digital tv still receive and process an analog signal from an outdoor antenna?
No. There will be no analog signal to receive and process from the outdoor antenna. The only signal coming from the outdoor antenna will be digital. When the conversion is complete. You will need to hook up your antenna directly to the TV. Your conversion box will be worthless as far as analog to digital is concerned.

What do you do when your phone doesn't let you send texts when you have credit and the screen shows Sending Failed?
"Sending failed" almost always means your phone cannot get a strong enough signal. This could be because it is too far from the nearest signal tower, or that it is too old and needs to be replaced.
What is the difference between analog and digital in very simple English?
Analog signals represent values with a continuously variable level. The signal has an infinite number of possible levels. Because the signal is infinitely variable, it can be affected by outside interference as well as by the circuits that carry and process the signal. These are the sources of noise and distortion. A system that handles analog information must be able to operate at the highest frequency that the signal will use. For audio, that is typically 20KHz and for video, in the region of 10MHz. A digital signal represents values in discrete steps and is often shown as a numeric value. The signal has a limited number of steps and there is no way to represent any intermediate values. The limitation in the number of steps is in itself a source of distortion but the nature of digital signals is that they are resistant to distortion and noise so the signal will not be degraded further. As the number of possible values increases, so the distortion caused by digitizing the signal will reduce. A digital system typically has to operate at far higher frequencies than its analog counterpart. Using audio signals as an example, a typical digital signal will capture a 16 bit value 44000 times each second. The frequency response of circuits handling the data will need to be in the region of 700KHz rather than the 20KHz for an analog signal.
