relation between PA gain and range in a transciever

Is these any relationship between Power Amplifier gain and range of transmitted signal in a transciever system.

there is a relation between output power of the PA

In link-budget if you want to start the link analysis before the PA, there would be a relation between the gain of the PA and the range of the transmitter.
Usually this is happened in some microwave links where the PA is located close to the antenna and far away from the rest of the transmitter.

There is a direct relation because the level of transmiter signal differs according to the PA gain.
