OK, I read it.

I was honestly surprised at how well the pea whistles and the Perry did along with the Fox40 Pearl. I really expected the Fox40 Classic to outperform them all except for the Storm

Except for the three bad whistles the rest were all pretty good really. Most of the ranges were over 300 meters (330yds) or roughly 1/5 of a mile.

I am taking a second look at the Fox micro though because I expected them to do better and really don't understand their poor performance. I might change to the Pearl or Perry whistles.

The changes in range depending on the season confused me and I don't understand the reasons for those differences yet. I can't tell if it was because of the snow on the ground absorbing the sound energy or if it was the humidity because they were in a coastal rain forest on a slope near the ocean.

However, the biggest surprise to me was how well the yell carried.
Even though yelling was not as loud as most of the whistles it still carried farther than all of them except the Storm whistle.
