Longest distance for Scanner Reception

Enjoying my new scanner, recently listened to the traffic generated
after a young man
attempting to rob a bank, was pursued and speedily captured by New
Yorks Finest.
I occasionally pick up New Paltz N.Y. over 70 miles away on my Uniden
BC 95 Scanner;
( Truck stuck under the toll booth )
Even though I am ~ 300 feet above sea level, I find this remarkable.
Go a rat shack Center loaded whip,
am waiting for Fair Radio to send me some co-ax
http://www.fairradio.com/catalog.php...item&item=1291
so I can mount the whole thing in a window . .
Is there any record for long distance reception on scanners; ?

Wait for sun spot max, you'll get lots of sporadic e, I've heard
transmissions from england & ireland on the vhf low band!
When's the next sun spot max?
