Do you have a Right hand polarized antenna on your googles? That can effect your range if you have linear too RHCP....

In a crash channels can get changed, make sure your vTx & vRx are on the same channel. There is a lot of overlap in analog channels, they say there are 40 but in reality maybe 8 that are useable. You can be on one that is close to another and get some reception with limited range. This happens a lot when you use auto scan to find your channel. If you must use auto scan, make sure the vTx & vRx are separated by 100 feet or more.
