Range and price of the RA-1 relay antenna #100

I think the RA-1 relay should have its cost reduced or its range buff (or both). Currently it sits at 1,800, just 100 cheaper than the RA-2, but it has 50 times less range. Not only that, compared with the HG-5 (same tech node), the RA-1 has less than half the range, while costing 3 times more.

I am asuming this antenna is just using the restock model or the RA-2 as a place holder for a future smaller dish. So, if the RA-1 is suppose to have a dish half the diameter of the RA-2 (around the same size of the dish in the HG-5), it should have a range of 25% or less of the RA-2 (~300-400 Mm, 10 times more than it has currently).
