Both my Genie opener remotes only activate the operator when they are very
close (10' or less) to the unit. Both my cars with factory installed garage
door buttons also only activate the operator when the vehicle is inside the
garage. This all happened overnight. I imagine changing batteries in the
hand held remotes might be a possible solution for these units, but the fact
that both cars buttons are now distance sensitive tells me something else is
going on.
Any suggestions? Radio interference? Gremlins? Sunspots?
I already try slightly repositioning the antenna wire, to no avail.
Any/all suggestions welcomed.

GENIE used to be very helpful on the phone. They would send
replacement parts promptly, sometimes for free. However, I recently
had to replace the remote transmitter because it had stopped working.
All I got was the address of a local representative about 20 miles away.
It turned out to be an elderly woman who had a supply of parts in her
basement. I was able to purchase the replacement but it doesn't work
reliably.
