Ok quick update - as someone else may have this issue -
before replacing plug-in receiver with new generation (and transmitters) at some expense - I decided to try and see if it was just the plug in board connection that had tarnished over time (16 years old). Well removing and reseating the receiver board did indeed fix the problem. Now which joint got remade in the process is anyone's guess - it could have just been a solder joint that got remade. But its all working, transmitter range back to 30m rather than 1m ! Hope that helps someone.
