Check for cuts and kinks in the receiver wire. I've never heard of a radio having as severe a problem as you're experiencing, but most of the time, a shortened or damaged receiver wire is the cause of signal issues. Also check the transmitter side and make sure the antenna is screwed all the way down.

I'm not too much of an electrician so I don't think I'm of use any longer.

Although, if you're looking for a cheap Tx/Rx, I'll be selling my 2.4ghz setup for $25 shipped.

Oh, you may want to check the voltage that the Rx and the Tx are getting. Might sound like a no brainer, but you never know!

Here it is:



It's just a simple 2.4ghz radio. Used it for 3 weeks.
