Default Spektrum Range issues

I have a new DX3 radio and can't solve my range problem. I can barely go 20-30 yards before I lose response. I have tried using both receivers that came with the radio. I have tried 20C, 30C lipos, a GTB that is spread spectrum optimized. Installed the glitch buster capacitor. Literaly tried a different everything. Even the cars, from TC4 rtr, TC4 FT, B44.. I have used 2-3 layers of servo tape under receiver while moving as far away from ESc as possible, still no acceptable range. As I type this I am on hold with the technical dept for the last 38 minutes. Thought some of you guys may be a little more helpful. I want to run over it with my SUV and go buy a Futaba as at least that name was dominant when I last raced 17 years ago. I have spent way too much over the last two months to have not enjoyed a glitch free lap. Can anyone help that may have had a similar experience?
