Maxpower1954,
You could try doubling the antenna length on that Futaba AM Rx. I believe it was intended for cars, so Futaba only gave it a half of an antenna.
That Rx is 1st choce for others using old 1960's vintage propo transmitters.
Yep, that was my thought as well, I did notice the R124 was about half the length of the R114 antenna, but I have two R114s and one RF-2, which is plenty for my vintage transmitter fleet. I'll try a full length antenna in my testbed Wingo sometime. Russ Farris
