i read over that i have everything hooked up right but i think i figured out what might be wrong the reciever say 75 mhz and i am using 27 mhz crysals could this be the problem?

That is exactly your problem. You have to use a receiver and transmitter which both transmits on the 27 or 75 mhz frequency.

The reciever has a 27 mhz crystal and so does the transmitter but the reciever says 75 mhz on the sticker so does that mean i have to use 75mhz crystals?

Lars in Norway

Both the transmitter and the receiver MUST be 27 or 75 mhz, it is not enough to just put chrystals that are the same into them.

Before you go ahead and spend money on a new receiver and/or transmitter, why don't you have a look at 2,4 ghz-sets? Then you don't have to worry about frequencies and chrystals, the radio will by itself find a signal that is not used by others. And they are way more reliable too, and almost have none signal loss and at the same time has a huge range.

Yes you need 75mHz crystals
