What's wrong with my transmitter

[Loheswaran]

My radio TX ruined my attendance at Silverstone on saturday - got up at 5.30 - arrived - radio did not work properly - tried different receivers, receiver placements, esc's, and servo's, along with different crystals (yes those little things you plug into your tx)

I then took the radio home and connected it in another car. It is the TX - full stop the end.

What happens is that it goes completely bonkers - throttle on and off steering left and right.

If you hold the aerial next to the receiver - no problem.

I am on the verge of sending it over to RC DIsco - but I am really fearing a big bill.

Has anyone had a similar problem - am I gonna be throwing good money after bad?
