Default How to apply Long-Range (Powers:108)

Hello all,

I'm building a custom version of the Telepathy power, and I want to adjust all its abilities to lack long-distance modifiers of any kind. My current approach is to apply Long-Range to each ability, so that all of them use the Long-Distance Modifiers (B:241) and then include Long-Range 1 (+50%) in the power modifier to upgrade them all to "no penalties".

My questions are...

1. Is this a legal way to remove all distance modifiers?
2. If yes, then what category of distance modifiers (as codified under Long-Range) do each of the following abilities have?


Clairsentience (range = 10 yards)
Illusion (Ranged) (range = 1/2D 10, Max 100)
Medium (range = “in your presence”)
Mind Probe (Ranged) (range = 1/2D 10, Max 100)
Mind Reading (Ranged) (rage = 1/2D 10, Max 100)
Terror (Active) (range = “anyone who sees or hears you (choose one”)


Looking more at the effects, it seems like Illusion (Ranged), Mind Probe (Ranged), and Mind Reading (Ranged) have penalties not as harsh as "regular spell". But I'm really uncertain.
