Question for those with AIS aboard - what is your range of reception?

I have an older Seacas unit (one of the original companies vending receivers, now Tango Uniform) strung to its own antenna on the mizzen mast. I get reception but only when the ship is pretty close (like 2 miles or less). There may be reason to suspect the installation. How far away are you seeing the AIS beacons?
