Pillowsplat Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 I stopped for Lunch at KFC and parked outside. My remote would not work outside the car. As soon as I pulled away It was fine. Must be the radio waves that make the Chicken so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzam Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 Yeah, I had that happen when I parked next to a telephone substation building. The electrical field generated by the equipment was stronger than the remote transmitter and created a dead zone. I tried it a couple of weeks later and had the same results.

Sweet82 Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 KFC's in Utah must be on a different frequency. I dined there for lunch today and my remote worked fine. (even quietly thanks to the earlier thread). The Colonel must be up to something? Glenn, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burke615 Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 I work about a quarter mile from a television station with several transmission towers (including one 1000+ foot monster) and my remote needs to be right next to the driver's side window/driver's side windshield to work. At home (45 miles away, and half a mile from a radio station) it's fine. Two of my co-worker's who have similar-vintage ('97-'99) Legacy Outbacks have no problem, though, so I must have just gotten the "lucky" frequency...
