I have looked the plane over pretty thoroughly and it range checks just fine...150' with and without the engine running. I just get a little hit may be once everyother time out flying. Any suggestions of what to look at, I would like to solve the problem before using the PCM receiver.

It is the battery that is wrapped in foil.
If it range checks OK I would think you probably have some other problem such as an antenna orientation problem or a reflection off a building or fence in your flying area. These things show up with a PPM receiver. A PCM receiver will ignor it.
I used to fly a pulse width symmetry system years ago. With that system any loss of a pulse was apparent as a glitch. You were almost guaranteed to get a glitch on take off or landing when the aircraft antenna was pointed at you
