Jandy remote will only connect if within 1 foot of the antenna. Antenna failing? Frequency change due? Thoughts? Within the last year it has changed from working anywhere to having to be right next to the antenna. Thanks.
 
Maybe a failing PDA battery affects transmission power.
 
Show us pictures of the remote and the antenna.

My guess is the antenna in the wireless receiver has deteriorated. They are replaceable. You need to open up the wireless receiver and see if the antenna is plugged into the PCB or soldered.
