any 2 or 3 ch receiver will give alot more range than across the street. have you inspected your rx antenna wire at the rx end ?

Rodney

It is most probably a bad receiver, could be crystal (there are two of them in the receiver, on plugin and one soldered in and either could be cracked if you ever jarred the receiver hard), antenna lose or broken inside insulation or a damage IF coil. Can you try a different receiver on the same channel?

i opened up and all i found was a bit of dust so i cleaned it but the antenna i didnt do anything to it besides twist the end of it back down the tube and shrink wrap it

Rodney

Your comments are most probably a joke but; just in case you are serious, the antenna end at the receiver has to be soldered to the proper land on the PC board. If it was loose and you stuffed it somewhere, you have a problem.

its not a joke. one end is solderd and he oher end comes out the plastic tube and i wraped it back around the top.
