    I think sending a microwave signal 125 Miles would be very hard unless they were sending the signal on top a very high mountain to another very high mountain there is something call the Curve of the Earth. Which limits the distance one can transmit a signal... You could go 125 with microwave if it was from one mountain to another. I have transmitted 10watts 75miles with video on it.

    They should get some higher-power cards and try moonbounce. Anywhere on earth that you can see the moon, you can log into the network... Hm, I wonder if the government is looking into this?
