has anyone ever had nothing but interference and just went to pcm and had good luck?
That would be very unwise, and anybody who did this probably would probably not post it ha ha. They probably also don't have the plane they did this in anymore. I used pcm, but will go with dual Hitec ppm in my 40%, controlled by a 10X. I lost a plane myself due to lock out at 400' and a dive straight in, never came out of lock out. I've seen another plane go in due to lock out. When a plane on pcm goes into lock out, it is a very numbing feeling, because you completely loose control. I feel, that if you get hits on ppm, you'll see/hear it, but still have a fighting chance to bring the plane safely on the ground. You can then check you equipment and field before proceeding.
