this is ripley...last surviving member of the nostromo..signing off...

radio, television and microwaves travel in a straight line...until they are intercepted, and re broadcast. we bounce microwaves off the moon... the only wave to circumnavigate the globe is longwave... as demonstrated by marconi in 1933, and used ot communicate with submarines on active service, and maintain communication between the outposts of the British Empire

I think radio stations are based on watts output. So I think once you get past that broadcast strength, you lose the signal.
