Combinable and Kerbin Sat Range

I see some of the antenna have (combinable) flagged on them, anyone know exactly how? Multiple antenna don't give a stronger signal do they?

Also I see kerbin is limited to 10Gm range before it is fully upgraded to 100. Does the 10Gm limit you to Duna and Eve and only when they are close in kerbol orbit?

Yes, some antennas can be combined to act like one bigger antenna.

That depends on the antenna on the your vessel. The antennas have a rating. It does not represent distance! You can get the distance by multiplying the ratings of both antennas and then taking the square root. SQRT(rating1*rating2). So two large antennas will have a lot more range then a large antenna and a small one.

Thank you :D. Guess I have to add a bunch extra!
