Revo and USA Hudson range problems

I have installed Revo in many engines and have been totally pleased with the operation of it. I recently installed it in a USA Hudson for a club member and the range is very poor. It is installed in the boiler as that is where the electronic package is for the loco. The batteries are housed in the tender. Has anyone had any experience with this combo?

Same reply as in two other forums, the tender is all metal… if your antenna is inside the metal voiler, it will “trap” the signal.

Make a coal load that has no metal underneath it and have the Revo antenna underneath that. Or you could drill a hole and let the antenna stick out of the boiler.
