The new DC40 is an integrated antenna in the collar of the dogs thus you dont have to have the unit standing up on the dog collar or on their back which becomes a problem. In working with the range issue an external Yagi type antenna could be used for having the unit in the field and should increase the range. If not and you are using the unit at a stationary location a high gain VHF antenna greatly helps with gaining some distance.
