Recall Quail to Johnny House????

If I take my birds out back of my house into a field. Lets say it's about a 1/4 mile, at the absolute most, away from my Johnny house will the males still call in the birds from that distance. I guess my question should really be, how far can the birds be planted from their pen and still be called back in.
By the way this is a great site. I've been trolling it looking for advice on a few things since I'm new to owning a bird dog and finally decided to start asking some of my own questions. Great place

Sorry, I thought I replied to your question several days ago. I just noticed it, again, lying here all alone! 1/4 mile is probably about the maximum distance for
good
results. They will call back farther, but farther distances mean more danger. Also, if you plant/release a bird 1/4 mile out, and the land 100 yards farther from the Johnny house is better habitat than you have, guess where the birds will go?
What is the total size of the "huntable part" of your field? You will probably want the Johnny house
near
the middle, but there are other considerations.
