On Vancouver Island we have a set of repeaters from one end to the other i can on my VHF (2 meter Radio ) in my Tracker talk to some one on a hand held in Port Hardy using the repeaters ........CB radio can can during skip conditions reach thousands of miles i have done this many times on the ten meter band which is much the same as CB or 11 meter band what ever you like to call it .............
